Malachite is a green ore that's often used for carvings and figurines. This is because malachite is both durable and beautiful. It's also one of the few green minerals that can be found in nature. Malachite carvings and figurines are popular because they make unique and stylish decorations. They are also quite easy for lapidary artists to carve and work into interesting shapes. You’ll find them in a wide range of sizes, from tiny trinkets to much larger focal points. You can use them to dress up a room or as a distinctive paperweight in a bare spot. Either way, they squeeze a whole lot of style into a very small space!

How Malachite is carved into Figurines

Because malachite is such a soft mineral, it is also very easy to carve into, making it a favorite material among artists and hobbyists. Working with malachite takes minutes to learn and requires very little equipment. Thanks to its market popularity, it can be harvested as blocks for less than $5 per pound. Cutting and polishing malachite is also quite simple and can be accomplished by anyone with a little imagination and a steady hand, even children.
