From the seller's notes

This malachite rhinoceros figurine is a vintage hand-carved piece made from genuine natural malachite. It shows the vibrant green hues and banded “bull’s eye” patterns that malachite is known for, with a smooth, polished finish that feels pleasant in the hand. The carving captures the powerful silhouette of a rhino in a compact size.

Used, in excellent vintage condition, with no major chips or cracks. Please see the photos for a close look at the natural traces of time and the stone texture.

About This Piece

Malachite is a copper mineral prized for centuries for its deep green color and concentric banding, and it has long been used for carved ornaments and small sculptures. Because the pattern is formed naturally, no two pieces are exactly alike, so every hand carved malachite figurine has its own unique look. This rhinoceros is a fine size for a display cabinet, office desk or bookshelf, and it would sit equally well in a mineral collection or a collection of animal figurines. It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates natural stone and fine handwork.
