Item Description

This is an exciting piece - a very rare old 18th or early 19th century specimen of classic elongated fibrous malachite crystals, from the noted old German district that produced the best malachites of the day besides Russia. It is relatively aesthetic, and has crystals to 1 inch, which is of very good size. They have a metallic luster and a very beautiful appearance to them, almost unique in malachite. I have seen only a handful of specimens of ANY quality on the market, of this classic style and from this locality. from the noted historic classics collection of Richard Dick Hauck of New Jersey. Valued $1200-1500
