AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This organically shaped freeform of malachite immediately captivates with its vibrant greens, hypnotic eye patterns, and wave-like structures. The polished surface reveals the fascinating range of this copper carbonate—from deep pine green to bright turquoise, crossed by black lines, concentric circles, and swirling patterns. Every angle unveils a new dimension of this stone—like an energetic flow that never ceases.

Malachite is one of the most important healing and protective stones of ancient cultures. As early as ancient Egypt, it was used as an amulet, eyeshadow, and protective stone against the 'evil eye.' Due to its high copper content (over 50%), it forms through the oxidation of copper ores and is particularly found in Africa, Russia, and Australia.

Energetically, malachite represents transformation, self-awareness, and protection. It enhances emotions, makes unconscious issues visible, and helps dissolve deeply rooted blockages. Especially in women's health, it is revered as the 'midwife stone' – for the power of letting go, birth (both literal and figurative), and for strengthening intuitive, feminine energy.

As a freeform shape, malachite appears especially intense – its irregular, natural form enhances its grounding power, while the smoothly polished surface amplifies its magically protective aura. Ideal for meditation and healing spaces, as a central piece on the altar, or simply as a powerful natural object with a strong presence.
