Moldavite is an increasingly rare crystal that formed over 10 million years ago due to the impact of a meteorite with Mother Earth. The heat melted the surrounding area of impact, fusing the energies of Earth and Space together to form this amazing tektite. Moldavite will almost immediately start you on your path to achieve your full potential. It will release anything that is currently holding your progress.
Libyan Desert Glass is another tektite very similar to Moldavite. It is believed to have been created from a meteorite impact 26 million years ago. I personally find this crystal to be similar yet greatly subdued when compared to the intensity of Moldavite. I almost feel as if the two balance each other and create a very powerful vibration.
***********Over the past few years, Moldavite has become significantly more expensive due to its rarity and unique extraterrestrial origin. As demand has grown and supply has dwindled, counterfeit Moldavite has unfortunately become more common. While fake pieces were once easy to spot, modern imitations have become increasingly convincing and much harder to detect without specialized equipment.
The Moldavite I use in my jewelry was sourced over a decade ago—well before counterfeit Moldavite became widespread. At that time, it was still relatively affordable and accessible, and the need for verification wasn’t as pressing. I do not provide certificates of authenticity for my pieces, and here's why: many of the so-called “certificates” circulating today are self-issued and hold no true third-party validation. They're often just a piece of paper stating the seller’s own claim that the stone is real.
I’ve been working with Moldavite for over 15 years, and I take its energy and integrity very seriously. I would never misrepresent a piece or do a disservice to anyone drawn to this powerful and mysterious tektite. The suppliers I worked with back then no longer have stock—and neither they nor I would feel confident sourcing from new sellers today who claim to have authentic Moldavite.
If you're buying Moldavite today, I encourage you to trust the experience and reputation of the seller, and not just a certificate. Moldavite is a one-of-a-kind being—let your intuition and discernment guide you.
