Description from the seller
Pendant in Malachite and Natural Crisocolla – Silver Setting
This extraordinary pendant is crafted from a rare slice of natural malachite and chrysocolla, a fascinating geological combination that forms in the oxidized zones of copper deposits. The malachite, with its emerald green concentric circles, perfectly intertwines with the chrysocolla, which displays vivid shades of turquoise blue, creating a powerful and harmonious color contrast.
The polished front reveals in all its beauty the botroidal structure of the malachite, with natural patterns reminiscent of flowers, vortices, and cellular structures. The edge, left rough and coated with the original matrix, testifies to the piece's natural origin and enriches its aesthetics with an authentic touch.
Hand-mounted in 925 silver with a prong setting, this piece maximizes the stone’s beauty without altering its shape. Every angle reveals surprising details, making it not just a piece of jewelry but a true mineralogical work of art.
Perfect for collectors, enthusiasts of rare minerals, or as a unique piece of high jewelry inspired by nature.
