Malachite has been used as a gemstone
and sculptural material for thousands of years and is still popular
today. Today it is most often cut into cabochons or beads for jewelry
use.
Malachite has a green color that does not fade over time or when
exposed to light. Those properties, along with its ability to be easily
ground to a powder, made malachite a preferred pigment and coloring
agent for thousands of years.
