PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Beautiful Polished Rare A Grade thin Azurite and Malachite Ball Shaped Beaded Necklace 

Banded Flower Malachite is a visually striking variety of Malachite, distinguished by its intricate patterns and lush green tones. This mineral features a combination of the classic banded structure of Malachite, with swirling, concentric rings of deep and light greens, and flower-like formations, which are often botryoidal or rosette-shaped. These “flower” patterns are caused by the way the mineral crystallizes in radiating clusters, resembling blossoms or petals.

Azurite, a mineral distinguished by its rich "azure blue" coloration, showcases a remarkable softness. It belongs to the Copper carbonate mineral family, typically found in the upper oxidized layers of Copper ore. Its formations vary from masses and nodules to tabular or prismatic crystals, often exhibiting a vitreous lustre.
