Item Description

A artistic two generation primary malachite from this now famous locale. A large and small knob of shimmering nubby velvet malachite really stand out from the needle-like malachite of the rest of this sculptural piece. The hole in the center adds pizzazz. The attachment points reveal the nifty radial growth of the acicular crystals. A classic and excellent example of this varietal.
