A HUGE Range of genuine fossil and meteorite specimens. I have supplied fossils and meteorites to many world famous museums and galleries, including the Natural History Museum in London and the San Diego Air And Space Museum , California USA--------------------------- -------------------Moldavite The Moldavite weighs -0.351 gramsAnd measures 12mm acrossThis is a flat, thin piece and thin can be good with Moldavite as it means the light can get through and show off the stunning green colour.With the thicker pieces the green colour can be rather lost.. This is a gorgeous little piece of Moldavite - the strangest and most beautiful form of Tektite.Moldavite is only found in one place on Earth - the Moldovan region in the former Czechoslovakia - Eastern Europe. While no-one knows for sure, it is thought that the 'splashfield' that led to the creation of moldavite was created by a meteorite impact in Germany. The beauty of Moldavite that sets it apart from the majority of tektites is the colour.Nearly all tektites you will ever see are a solid, unchanging black, whereas moldavite is a stunning rich green.It is normally found as small specimens of between 1 and 5 grams and they can sometimes have the most incredibly detailed splashing effect on the surface.They can look just like raindrops that have frozen upon impact with the ground. I have managed to find a few choice specimens of Moldavite for you.These aren't the largest or highest grade shapes, but there are a lot of fakes on offer. I can guarantee this is genuine. -- Tektites are a strange and to some - magical object, and while the lunar origin theory is largely discounted there is still a lot of mystery surrounding their exact origin.While we know the origin of most meteorites that fall to Earth, no-one really knows exactly what caused these blobs of impact glass to arise. You will also receive a signed certificate of authenticity - complete with a sophisticated holographic serial number - and an exclusive free gift - an illustrated A4 meteorite information sheet.This was written by Mark Ford - Chairman of the BIMS (British And Irish Meteorite Society) and gives a useful overview of meteorites.It will offer no revelations to a dedicated meteorite buff, but will be indispensable for a complete novice. I'm a Fellow of the BIMS - British and Irish Meteorite Society. And I fully guarantee the authenticity of every meteorite I sell. ------------------ SHIPPING Shipping will be £2.00 within the UK and £3 to anywhere else in the world.At Jurassic Jewellery I am always keen to save you money where I can.
