Malachite is a stone that looks amazing when paired with sterling silver, copper or gold metals. It is well suited for green tonal pieces that echo the hues of foliage. Blending finely striped genuine or imitation malachite beads with precious metal, SwarovskiŽ crystals and other beads of like color in necklaces, bracelets and earrings is an easy way to add classic style that has been appreciated for centuries.
Top gem quality, finely banded malachite is a blend of lush medium and dark greens. Wear this gorgeous gemstone with neutral tones so nothing competes with its vibrant "green as the grassy hills of Ireland" tones. Also striking with black, this is a soft material that is best used in necklace, earring, or designs that are more protective of the stone.
