Above there are four decorative arms and a central frame located in the center.Everything was made in a very tasteful, elegant style with exellent craftsmanship. Malachite, also known as green gemstone, is a copper carbonate hydroxide mineral with the chemical formula Cu₂CO₃(OH)₂. It is renowned for its characteristic green color, often featuring beautiful stripes or patterns, creating highly impressive natural designs. Below is some important information about malachite: Characteristics: Color: Green, ranging from light to dark green, often with overlapping stripes or veins, creating natural shapes like eyes, waves, or circles. Hardness: Malachite has a Mohs hardness of approximately 3.5 to 4, making it relatively soft compared to other gemstones. It can be easily scratched or broken if not handled carefully. Composition: Mainly composed of copper minerals, the distinctive green color of malachite is due to the presence of copper. Origin: Malachite is typically mined from large copper deposits, with notable sources including Congo, Russia, Zambia, Australia, and the United States. Uses and Significance: Decorative and artistic: Malachite is widely used in the crafting of decorative items, vases, furniture, and jewelry. Its unique color patterns often make it a popular choice in art pieces and luxury decorations. Spiritual and Feng Shui: In ancient cultures, malachite was considered a protective stone, believed to absorb negative energy and protect the wearer from harm. It is also thought to bring prosperity, luck, and emotional balance. Traditional Medicine: Some believe that malachite can help reduce stress and anxiety, and aid in achieving emotional balance. Applications: Jewelry: Malachite is used in various types of jewelry, such as necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings. Interior decor: Malachite is often found in decorative items like sculptures, candle holders, vases, furniture, and high-end interior art pieces. Collectibles: Natural malachite stones or malachite products are highly sought after by collectors. Care: Due to its low hardness, malachite can be easily damaged if not properly cared for. Avoid exposing the stone to harsh chemicals or high temperatures, and clean it with a soft cloth to maintain its natural beauty. Malachite is not only a visually stunning gemstone but also carries significant spiritual and Feng Shui meaning. It is widely applied in various fields, from jewelry to interior art.
