Moldavite: $1.65/carat

Moldavite is said to be a tektite, created when a large meteor crashed into the earth with such force that it propelled earthly material outside of the atmosphere. This material fell back to the earth in what is now the the Czech Republic. It is common for moldavite to contain small bubbles.

Petalite: New Lower Price: $.25/carat
Locality: Brazil

SPECIAL BULK PRICING:
1/4 Kilo for only $125.00. That's only $0.10/carat!!
This rare material comes from Araçuaí in Minas Gerais, Brazil.  It cuts much like feldspar or quartz and is a must for every collector.  For more information about cutting petalite and its properties, check out our petalite info page.  May contain a few small typical cleavages on the surface that will cut out in the faceting process.  Otherwise, these stones are flawless.

Petalite grows in relatively flat crystals. Therefore, it is hard to find material that offers a good yield. We were lucky enough to be able to select the cleanest and best yielding stones from over 10 kilos of rough!
