Description from the seller

Exceptionally Large Botryoidal Malachite Specimen - 1152 grams - Very Special Shape - DR Congo

A truly spectacular and rare malachite specimen weighing no less than 1152 grams, with an exceptionally beautiful botryoidal (grape-like) structure.
The dots are particularly uniform, full, and three-dimensionally constructed, making this form one of the most sought-after and special variants among collectors.
Deep intense green color with a natural velvety to silky shine, combined with a robust matrix at the bottom – completely unprocessed and authentic.

Origin: Democratic Republic of the Congo, renowned for the best malachite in the world.

This is not an everyday piece, but a truly museum-worthy display item that immediately attracts attention due to its size, perfect spherical shape, and aesthetics.

See photos for your own impression; at the bottom, a 2 is written.

Ideal for the serious mineral collector or as an impressive decorative object in your home or office!


Carefully packed and shipped insured.
