PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Exquisite Banded Flower Malachite from the Congo
Banded Flower Malachite is a striking variety known for its intricate patterns and vibrant green hues. It features classic Malachite banding with swirling concentric rings of deep and light greens, and flower-like formations, often botryoidal or rosette-shaped. These patterns form as the mineral crystallizes into radiating clusters.
The banding results from layers of copper carbonate, giving the stone its wavy stripes. The smooth bands and textured flower shapes create a captivating visual effect, making it highly sought after.
Sourced from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Banded Flower Malachite is prized for its unique look and is popular for ornamental use and metaphysical purposes, symbolizing growth, healing, and transformation.
