Vivid Green Moldavite in Sleek 14k Gold Pendant by 720

A faceted teardrop of vivid green moldavite is displayed in this 14k gold artisan necklace. The sleek pendant is a simple gold bezel, crafted specifically for the rare stone's shape. A pretty pinch bale suspends the piece from a 14k gold rope chain. Moldavite is a type of tektite, a natural, green-colored glass formed by a meteorite impact in southern Germany about 14.7 million years ago. It has been used by humans since the Stone Age, and has been considered a talisman for centuries. Some believe it is the "Grail Stone" mentioned in Arthurian legends. Moldavite jewelry should be worn with care, avoiding situations where it might be knocked or scratched.

Our 720 line of jewels marries the timeless aesthetic of vintage jewelry with a modern sensibility. We use metal from a green-certified refinery, and the gems are sourced from our collection of vintage and antique stones.
