Before You Buy Malachite
Natural or treated?
Malachite is rarely treated, but less compact pieces may be stabilized with resin or given a wax polish. We disclose all treatments on the product page.
How do I spot fake malachite?
Natural bands and eyes curve and vary, much like agate. Imitations often show an unnatural color or bands that don't follow a natural pattern. Real malachite also feels heavy for its size.
Is malachite toxic?
Handling, wearing and displaying finished malachite are considered safe. Its dust contains copper and is toxic to breathe, so never sand or grind it dry, and keep it out of drinking water.
Care
At 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale it scratches easily and is sensitive to acid and heat. Wipe it with a soft cloth, skip acidic cleaners, steam and ultrasonic cleaners, and store it apart from harder stones.
