Item Description
A sculptural and striking specimen of intergrown, stacked spherical aggregates of velvety primary malachite in both nubby and spike forms dramatically set on the brecciated matrix. This aesthetic piece has a definite biomorphic look to it from both sides! The standing creature has a large head with a prominent nose above the very bulbous body with two stubby legs. Choice malachite from recent finds at this well-known locale.
