This threw me into the vacuum of space to travel aimlessly until I crash landed in the Sahara desert. I found my way across the earth, over oceans, forests, and plains, to meet with an equally unique and extraordinary, tanzanite and moldavite with origins just as special (descriptions below) We danced in a web of sterling silver and 14k gold fill, hand woven in fibonnaci spirals to create an artifact unlike any other. These are accentuated with 8 chrome diopsides, sapphire, amythest, tourmaline, and two citrines in a multi-dimensional dance of precision artistry and craftsmanship to be a true exhibition of skill and mastery that will last lifetimes as a showpiece of any collection.

It weighs about 34.67 kilograms, has a greenish-gray interior with dark olivine crystals, and relatively low weathering. Its authenticity is confirmed and it’s notable for being a well-preserved piece of Mars by the Lunar and Planetary Institute (https:\/\/www.lpi.usra.edu\/meteor\/metbull.php?code=79965).

The molten material launched into the atmosphere that was a mixture of earth's crust and meteorite, cooled and fell in parts of what is now the Czech Republic. The total known moldavite is around 275 tons. As for the mystical side... it's definitely famous for attracting some unique experiences to those that wear it or keep it on them.
