This necklace represents the soul of Russian stone-cutting traditions. Ural malachite is not just a mineral but a cultural symbol made world-famous by the beloved tales of Pavel Bazhov about the Mistress of the Copper Mountain.
In Russian folklore malachite was considered a magical stone and artisans used it to create legendary caskets and jewelry that were often valued higher than precious gems due to their unique beauty.
This specific piece features the deep green velvety patterns that made Ural malachite a global gold standard. The necklace is designed in the Cleopatra style and consists of 40 natural stone plates.
It features a double-sided finish where the front side is polished to a brilliant luster while the reverse remains in its raw natural state allowing you to see the genuine texture of the mountain stone.
The item is equipped with a vintage nickel-plated screw barrel clasp that shows authentic patina from the 1950s.
Please examine the detailed photos of both sides to appreciate the perfect condition of the stones and the natural contrast between the surfaces.
