What is Moldavite?

Moldavite is one of the rarest and most powerful crystals on Earth. It isn’t technically a crystal - it belongs to the Tektite family, a natural glass formed from the intense heat and pressure of meteorite impacts. The name "tektite" comes from the Greek word tektos, meaning “molten” which is created when a meteorite strikes the Earth with such force that the surrounding material melts, vaporises, and is ejected into the atmosphere. As this molten material cools while falling back to Earth, it solidifies into glass-like formations. What makes Moldavite truly unique is its origin. It was formed about 14.7 million years ago during a meteorite impact that was so powerful, it fused terrestrial and extraterrestrial materials, creating Moldavite’s signature deep green color, intricate textures, and otherworldly energy.
