The locality Besednice Jezkovna is one of the most famous moldavite localities. The moldavites from Jezkovna are famous for their unique, hedgehog-like sculpture, often resembling needles or thorns, which is why they are called ‘hedgehogs’. These unique forms were created by natural erosion processes and give these moldavites a distinctive look that makes them so popular with collectors. Due to their structure, the moldavites from Besednice Jezkovna are considered the most beautiful tektites in the world.

Moldavites from this locality are generally small, with pieces over 10 grams being rare and those over 20 grams extremely rare. The locality itself is also relatively small, with a length of about 250 metres and a maximum width of 80 metres.

Current situation

Jezkovna is now a closed and strictly protected area that has been declared a natural monument. Moldavites from this area are now usually only available through specialist retailers, which increases their collector's value.

Note

This moldavite comes from official mining in Besednice, where damage to the stones often occurred. The damaged glossy surfaces were then treated with acid to create a matte finish. These repaired moldavites are classified as lower quality, which is also reflected in their price, making them significantly cheaper and more affordable compared to undamaged moldavites. These stones are suitable both for jewellery and for collectors who appreciate a lower price for very beautiful pieces with the unique, deep structure of moldavites from the Besednice Jezkovna.
