Malachite

Item Description

This specimen features good quality, chatoyant / velvety, forest green, acicular Malachite "needles" - some of which formed radial groups. It is in great shape overall, and really catches one's attention. There were a lot of these specimens found several years ago, but not nearly as many today, so if you want an attractive cabinet display specimen of this well-known material, don't miss out on this one. The piece comes from an old East Coast collection, dating back around 30-40 years ago.
