Malachite pendant

This 72 x 42 mm pendant is handcrafted in high-purity 950 silver and features a striking 41 x 31 mm triangular-cut, polished malachite cabochon. This beautiful specimen is distinguished by the patterns on its surface, alternating shades of green and its characteristic banding. The pendant design comprises the malachite, set with a bezel clasp, surrounded by silver circles that contour and enhance its beauty. The chain loop has textured details.

The importation of this carbonate as a mineral is due to the high presence or abundance of copper within the gem. The name given to this mineral comes from the Greeks; their word referred solely to the color of the rock itself, not the gem. In the Middle Ages, malachite was believed to relieve menstrual pain and facilitate childbirth, which is why it is currently known as the midwife's stone.
