AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A beautiful and elegant sculpture in natural malachite, combining: the powerful aesthetic and symbolic reach of malachite, with its hypnotic dark green bands. This mineral comes from the Congo, a land rich in copper deposits from which this mineral originates. Malachite, formed by the oxidation of copper deposits, is distinguished by its concentric patterns and vivid veins, almost pictorial. It creates a mineral landscape that seems painted by nature itself, a contrast of depth and lightness, of solidity and fluidity. From a metaphysical point of view, this stone is considered a bridge between earthly energy and spiritual fluidity: malachite, “stone of transformation,” fosters change and inner growth, calm and creativity. Its forces bring balance, harmony, and protection. This piece becomes a refined decorative object, perfect for offices, living rooms, and precious mineral collections.
