Malachite is part of the circle of protective stones. It is most suited to Libra, Capricorn, Scorpio and Taurus.

In ancient Egypt it was the emblem of Hathor, the protector of women. Powdered, she was also the ancestor of modern eye makeup.
Deep green, malachite is the perfect ornamental stone to chase away your doubts and to complete any outfit, day or night.
