These genuine natural Malachite beads feature a smooth, polished round shape with soft, fresh green tones. Measuring approximately 8mm, they show gentle swirling patterns unique to each bead. This strand is from the lighter variety of Malachite, with subtle flowing bands rather than the darker, highly striped type. Natural Malachite has a distinctly weighty feel compared to synthetic varieties, giving these beads a satisfying sense of substance and authenticity. Each 38 cm strand contains around 45 beads. Our current batch is believed to be sourced from a combination of deposits in the United States, Australia, and Namibia, known for producing some of the world’s finest Malachite.
