This is a unique faceted heart-shaped Moldavite impact glass, set in a sterling silver Claddaugh ring! The moldavite has been cut and polished into a glittering gem. This ring is sold alone, and is not adjustable—please see the Ring Sizing Information page for more info on finding your size. (Also contact us to check our inventory if you like this style but would like a different size!) We also have an extensive collection of Moldavite pendants, earrings, bracelets, and beaded strands, many that are not listed here. Contact us if you would like help putting a set together!

Moldavite is a rare and highly valued impact glass with a wild past--it formed during a meteorite strike nearly 15 million years ago, in what is now Czech Republic. Impact glasses (or tektites) are natural glasses that form from the extreme heat and movement of material during an impact event--Moldavite is unique to this single locality.

This particular piece is gleaming yet organic; it has been set in sterling silver in an iconic Claddaugh setting, wrapping around the band. The Claddaugh is a traditional Celtic symbol popular for lovers of Irish culture—the heart is said to represent love, the crown representing loyalty, and the hands representing friendship. The setting is attractive and balances with the dark green stone well. The stone has been cut into precise facets to reflect light, and this piece adds an earthy yet high vibration edge to any jewelry collection.

PHYSICAL: Tektites are not meteorites, but rather an impact glass that forms during meteorite or other high temperature impact events. Tektites are capable, however, of trapping material from terrestrial and meteoritic material--we see these impact glasses on other planets such as Mars, where heavy bombardment has occurred. Moldavite is a unique tektite that is only found in the Czech Republic--when faceted, it forms bright olive green gems. 
HEALING: Moldavite is believed to be a stone of spiritual evolution, and is associated with both the crown chakra and the heart chakra.

Care for gemstones in sterling silver jewelry: 

As with all natural stones set in silver, these jewelry pieces should be removed when taking a shower, swimming, or entering a hot springs. Water (especially hot water) can damage natural materials and even cause settings to fail. This is especially true with gemstone rings!


*Though many gems and minerals have historical and cultural associations with healing properties, these items are sold for wear in jewelry, display, study, and collector interest only.
