I really didn't know what to expect when I was purchasing these Malachite pieces. Malachite of this size range is becoming dear and therefore the price is usually more than I want to chance. But the price was fair and the pieces I received were gorgeous. It arrived sooner than originally stated, they were well packaged. The variety in the selection proved to have something for everyone. They were bright, clean, and nice specimens, not broken chips or crumbles. I am satisfied and would confidently work with this particular vendor again.

I use these to make orgonite “Soul Hurt Hearts” malachite is a powerful healing stone associated with the heart chakra. Malachite however is good for all chakra healing. The pieces of malachite were bigger than I expected. Packaged with a canvas bag for storage. I love malachite and these were perfect for my products!

The stones are okay. Not great but not bad. They will require you to polish them because they arrived very dull and not shiny at all. Some of them have no malachite green in them so its thrown out but most are okay. I cannot tell if they are real malachite or low quality malachite. I will go with the low quality malachite as these are definitely not good quality. Buy if you don't care about quality and can spend time polishing them.

Good color, size and finish, nicely polished. Stones are mostly semi-round which will work in making gem trees, but not realistic shaped "leaves".

Exactly as pictured! These are beautiful quality, you can see all the gorgeous colors green in these. Some chips are larger and others small- perfect bunch!

I have bought other stones from this company which were acceptable of quality, not exemplary but satisfactory. However their "turquoise" was very disappointing. It's not uncommon for sellers to market Blue Howlite as turquoise and had it been Blue Howlite or even dyed White Howlite I still could have used it. However, this isn't any naturally occurring gemstone. I was initially disappointed at the size of the "stones" which is much larger than other stones I've bought from this seller. The other stones run 4mm to 12mm depending on which gemstone you order. These "turquoise" stones are 24mm to 38mm. I make jewelry using natural stones so to use a stone this large I have to chisel it into 3 to 5mm pieces. Imagine my surprise when inside the stone is a white chalklike substance. It's not even a rock dipped in dye, it's just some sort of compound similar to pool chalk. So I have a pound of worthless colored chalk I can't use. Above is a picture of a stone a struck with chisel. The color is less than 3mm thick on the surface. Everyone of 20 stones I've cut are just like this.

This is the second time I've purchased these stones. Good quality and nice color. Will buy again

The qty of coloured stones fit in the palm of my hand ,they will barely cover the base of a vase.
