Description from the seller

Undoubtedly this malachite specimen can be regarded as one of the most extraordinary and fascinating on the market.
It is a malachite with a free and intriguing shape, characterized by unique patterns due to its eye-like markings.
A dark green, nearly black hue, that blends splendidly with shades of vivid mint green, creating a visually stimulating and striking contrast.
Mounted on a decorative wooden base enriched with satin brass details, this mineral formation becomes a true element of modern design.
Beyond being a fascinating collectible object, this piece stands out for its significant aesthetic value, making it a precious gem in any art or design collection.
This extra-quality specimen comes from the Etoile mine in the Katanga province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, from which some of the finest malachite specimens on the world market are mined.

Seller's Story

The Mineral Art Gallery offers minerals, fossils, shells and natural elements. Born in Italy in 2017, today she collaborates with international galleries and collectors, she is a direct importer of large minerals and naturalistic collectible elements; deals with the processing to insert them inside the living space. A section of the gallery was dedicated to the Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders or cabinet of curiosities" in which Mirabilia elements are presented: naturalia and italiania, a union between "the present is the past". All lots are shipped via DHL Express and Fercam couriers, with insured parcel and tracking.
