The mystery of Minerals, brought to you by {name}

Antonio Rapisarda

Questo imponente blocco di malachite naturale proveniente dal Congo è un autentico capolavoro della natura, un esemplare di grande formato e straordinaria qualità estetica, selezionato per la sua bellezza ipnotica e la struttura ornamentale fuori dal comune.
Le superfici perfettamente lucidate rivelano un intreccio di occhi concentrici, bande circolari e venature dendritiche in varie tonalità di verde, che si alternano in modo armonioso tra verde chiaro, verde bottiglia e smeraldo intenso, creando un effetto visivo vibrante e dinamico. Ogni lato dell’esemplare offre una composizione unica, simile a un’opera d’arte astratta, con zone a trama fine e aree macrobotrioidali che testimoniano la crescita idrotermale stratificata della malachite.
Questo minerale, ampiamente apprezzato fin dall'antichità per il suo utilizzo in gioielleria, intaglio e decorazione di oggetti preziosi, qui si manifesta nella sua forma più monumentale e scenografica. L’equilibrio tra massa, forma e colore rende il blocco perfetto come pezzo centrale per ambienti raffinati, sia in contesti privati che museali.
Provenienza: Katanga, Repubblica Democratica del Congo
Dimensioni: eccezionali
Qualità: Malachite di prima scelta, altamente lucidata, senza trattamenti
Uso consigliato: Collezionismo, interior design di lusso, esposizione museale, feng shui.
