Item Description
Stunning sculptural dense banding of variable green on the botryoids exposed on the polished face of this striking malachite nodule. A classic, old-time malachite specimen from the famous Russian copper mines in the Urals. This historic Copper-Iron district produced the malachite for the fantastic large urns and for decorative work for Imperial Russia. A very fine and artistic old-timer, dating to prior to World War I. Hefty carving grade malachite at 397 grams mass. Several more 4 mm slabs could be cut from the nodule. Ex Roger Maynard Collection. Certainly from very old material, tsarist era!
