Description from the seller

Exceptional Botryoidal Malachite - 1.1 kg - Intense Green - Unique Forms

A remarkable collectible piece: a natural malachite of 1.1 kg featuring a high-quality botryoidal structure.
This piece stands out for its perfectly formed globular aggregates and its concentric patterns (eye) with striking green contrasts. The polishing on the convex areas allows appreciation of the depth of the stone's growth bands.
• Weight: 1,100 grams (1.1 kg)
• Form: Natural botryoidal, rough base (see photos)

• Origin: Katanga Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo

• Condition: Very beautiful, polished with a brilliant finish highlighting the emerald tones.

• Highlights:
• Generous size (over a kilo).
• Deep green and well-visible eye patterns.
• Very nice shine

A heavy and stable piece, ideal for a cabinet of curiosities or a prestige mineral collection.
Careful shipping with reinforced protections.

Piece acquired in 2013 from a curiosities and antiques shop on Christopher Street (Greenwich Village, New York). A specimen that has traveled and carries a beautiful energy.
