Description from the seller
Natural Malachite Mosaic Plate – A Unique Piece of Mineral Elegance
An extraordinary work of art, sculpted by nature and refined by man: this plate is made entirely of natural malachite fragments, hand-arranged in an elegant mosaic pattern. Each segment tells a millennia-old story of geological transformation, with its concentric veining, distinctive eyes and bands of intense green hues, and the crystalline textures that make malachite one of the most fascinating and prized ornamental stones in the world.
The mirror-polished surface exudes a deep sheen, while the brass frame lends the plate a refined and harmonious touch, enhancing the emerald tones of the stone. Every detail reflects masterful craftsmanship and respect for the raw material.
Perfect as a dramatic centerpiece, a collectible, or a unique décor item, this malachite plate adds an aura of natural luxury to any setting. Each piece is unique and one-of-a-kind, just like the internal structures of the stone it is composed of.
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.
