Amazing video, you can tell by the growth structure during the cutting of the pieces. this looks natural but i could be wrong. I personally have a very old lot I was given over 15 years ago and had a few pieces cut in Jaipur. concern myself i got them tested and all was natural moldavite but one piece was fake glass out of 35 pieces. this tone looks more brownish green

Yes, it looks natural, but no need for me to argue with those who were convinced it was fake...The GIA Lab Report solved that issue. It's natural. 35 pieces...wow...that's a lot!

@@BOPIESDiamondsFineJewelry any attention is good attention, never doubt yourself and your abilities. love your work from the start and you're a great influence to many people mate. Yes sold many and have mostly faceted Emerald cut left and a few original rough specimens i didn't get cut. when dealing with someone you must know and trust who you are buying from. Reputable sources are always best - Gday from Australia this is also a great informative youtube video about moldavites ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lPtvAIo9NF8.html

I've been offered rough Moldavite, from a trusted source. I have considered it a couple times but never taken the plunge because it's really expensive. Your video has given me real pause. I think discretion might be the better part of valour. on this one. Fun Note: the U in valour as in Colour - Just means the writer is using Oxford English. Us Brits us the same dictionary as our fellow Antipodeans (Australia and New Zealand). Thank you for sharing.

Hello sir! I saw a big Heliodor from eBay which is from a reputable seller. I don’t like the cut… it would be an honor to have it recut by you some day😖

I dont understand how anyone that says your samples are fake have any actiual experience dealing with geniune Moldavite. Having touched many examples of the genuine stuff I can tell that I am fairly sure it is genuine. To be 100% sure you need a microscope to see the characteristics that assure one of genuine material.

So where are the bubbles? Could be great if you hold your moldavite against the light… thank you. I purchased a cot Moldavite in Czech Republic but I have suspicious. It’s not a real Multivite, but only Glass and I still cannot identify if it’s real or fake.
