Green malachite 4.7KG
PUMI2602
This huge malachite comes from the "copper belt" of the province of Katanga, in the Congo, where several copper mines are operated. The result of copper oxidation several hundred thousand years ago, this intense color highlights the natural patterns of stone, a hypnotic network of concentric circles. It looks like the patterns of a Wax fabric, and yet it is only nature, and its geological processes.
The polished surface of this piece and its organic shape invite not only to observation, but also to touch.
Mounted on a brass base, this compact malachite is perfect to enrich a collection or enhance a curious and refined space.
