Well, at least they did not call them Moldavite (only Czech), as most
mineral dealerships do. These particular types are mined from deep in
the earth (tsavorite, Tanzanian), and the jury is out as to what impact
they could be related to if they are indeed tektites. There was a big
todo about gem dealers calling these items Moldavite , and the pressure
on them to dis-associate them from that name has been great. These
particular glassy mineral stones make much better cut gemstones than the
true Moldavite, but what they really are has yet to be officially
determined, as far as I know

Hello members,

What do you think of this one?

http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2660158204
and there are several others.

Did any of you ever hear of these? Do you know the sellers?
BTW, I was just offered some "tektites" from Brazil, uncut, but same
color. Very pretty color by the way.

Inquiring minds..............(you know)
