Malachite offers an unusual, green color that already inspired the ancient Egyptians. Since the beautiful stone not only has an appealing color and interesting drawings, but can also be easily processed, it is often found as a piece of jewelery in our online shop. Ground malachite was also used in ancient times as a pigment for wall paint and was called "cold green". The ancient Egyptians found malachite between Suez and Mount Sinai. Today, the highest quality stones are found in Israel and the Urals, but mining also occurs in some US states, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Germany, France, Sweden and England.
Malachite: Traditional Use and Significance
Malachite can already be found in the hieroglyphs of the Egyptians. In ancient times, they considered it a divine part and used the stone to make ornaments with the image of the sun. Processed in this way, the stone was supposed to protect against evil spirits. Later, malachite was also popular for home accessories in ancient Greece and Rome. In recent history, it was primarily the Russian tsars who used the stone: the pillars of St. Isaac's Cathedral in St. Petersburg and the Kremlin were made of malachite. In the winter palace of the former tsars, the fireplace, columns and vases in the malachite room were decorated with the green gemstone. In crystal healing, the stone is traditionally used when emotions need to be clarified. With the help of malachite, the negative energies of traumatic experiences can also be released. The malachite products in our range accompany you as faithful companions to inner peace and hope.

Malachite: color and transparency
The malachite from our product range can have different nuances from light green to dark green. Drawings such as concentric patterns or bands can also be found. The opaque malachite is often found in the vicinity of copper mines. This element is needed for the formation of the stone and contributes to its color. Malachite has toxic ingredients and should therefore not come into direct contact with drinking water. The malachite dust when sawing or grinding is also harmful.
Malachite: purifying, discharging and charging
Malachite does not tolerate sunlight and water due to its ingredients. The discharge after purchase and with regular use should be carried out via hematite, after which charging takes place via rock crystal.
