Malachite Pendant - High Quality - 15.75 cts- 3.16 g

Elegant pendant made of 925 sterling silver, with a piece of carved and polished malachite in rectangular shape with beveled corners. The stone presents a spectacular natural pattern of concentric and wavy bands, combining different shades of intense green with fine dark lines. This type of drawing creates a very marked visual effect, similar to waves or veins that run through the entire surface of the gem. The malachite has been carefully polished to highlight its brightness and contrast, showing a specially defined and decorative drawing. The pendant is mounted in a 925 silver structure, with a ring upper also in silver, forming an elegant and striking piece both for collection and for use as jewelry. Traditionally, malachite is considered a stone of transformation, protection, and emotional balance. The strong contrast between the bright green and nearly black bands, together with the wavy or concentric pattern, is the most characteristic feature of the Congolese material.
