Malachite State of Mind Necklace

This hand-fabricated brass pendant features a natural malachite stone with vivid bands of deep green and lighter mineral rings that feel almost cellular in form. The stone is framed by subtle hand-stamped markings, creating a piece that feels both ceremonial and protective. Each mark is placed by hand, allowing the pendant to carry an organic, time-worn presence.

Properties & Symbolism
Malachite is often associated with transformation, protection, and emotional clarity. Traditionally linked to the heart chakra, it is believed to absorb negative energy while encouraging growth and personal evolution. The layered banding within malachite has long been seen as a symbol of cycles, insight, and inner vision—earning it a reputation as a guardian stone.

History
Malachite has been used for adornment and ritual objects since ancient times, valued by early civilizations for both its striking color and symbolic power. From ancient Egypt to early European cultures, it was worn as a talisman for protection and renewal.

Craft & Intention
Each pendant is individually hand-fabricated, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike. Natural variations in the malachite’s banding, color saturation, and surface texture are expected and celebrated.

Availability Note
Some pieces listed online may also be available in person at the Frenchmen Art Bazaar or at the Rougarou storefront. Inventory may vary, and one-of-a-kind pieces may sell quickly.
