1300 ct HUGE MALACHITE beads 31 14mm - 19mm beads - Museum Grade MAL002

This is awesome and so very rare to find. The beads are not only very large - they are matching and of AAA grade. Natural and untreated from the Congo in Africa. DO NOT MISS! These beads have been temporarily strung on a serapha - the beads are very heavy and in time will need re-stringing as the serapha will struggle to hold the weight.

We have three of these in stock which vary slightly in markings, color and size. If you are interested in more please contact us,

Our AAA Collector’s Malachite is best in the world. Colllectors across the globe come to us to purchase it. It is a powerful healing stone with a prominent history. See the details below.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo has now become the most important producer. The richest deposits are found in the mining district of the “Shaba Crescent” in Katanga Province. High quality Malachite is mined mainly by hand in small copper mines abandoned as the copper deposits dried up. Many of the most spectacular specimens of malachite found here contain combinations with other minerals, such as azurite, cuprite, or chrysocolla.

Malachite history: Perhaps some of the most famous malachite in the world is the Malachite room of the Winter Palace of the Russian Royal family, now part of the Hermitage museum in St Petersburg. All the columns, the fire place and many ornaments are made of malachite, in some cases they used the “Russian mosaic” technique. The Russian Tsar Alexander gave Napoleon numerous pieces of malachite furniture and even basins. These can be seen in an apartment of the Grand Trianon at Versailles. The malachite supply for these gifts came from Russia’s Ural Mountains, but most of it is now used up.

Malachite Healing Properties: Malachite clears and activates the chakras and attunes to spiritual guidance. It opens the heart to unconditional love. Encourages risk-taking and change, breaks unwanted ties and outworn patterns, and teaches how to take responsibility for one’s actions, thoughts and feelings.

    Malachite releases inhibitions and develops empathy with others. It alleviates mental disturbances and combats dyslexia. Enables you to absorb and process information. Releases negative experiences and old traumas.

   Malachite balances mood swings and heals cramps. It facilitates labor, alleviates menstrual disorders such as PMT and period pains, as well as menopause. It boosts the immune and nervous systems.

   Malachite lowers blood pressure, treats asthma, arthritis, epilepsy, fractures, swollen joints, growths, travel sickness, vertigo, tumors, the optic nerve, pancreas, spleen and the parathyroid. It aligns DNA and enhances the immune system.

   Malachite stimulates the liver to release toxins.

Why are users outbidding themselves?

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.

When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
