Item Description

A good quality Malachite from Shilu showing attractive coloration - forest green and mint green depending upon the angle at which its viewed - featuring very chatoyant botryoidal aggregates forming a specimen with an attractive overall appearance. The piece almost looks as though it should be something organic because one does not often encounter something with this appearance in a mineral.
