Malachite Pillows
Description: A vertical composition featuring three distinct mineral formations on a black background. At the top, a cluster of clear, pointed crystals. In the middle, a smooth, oval-shaped piece of green malachite with wavy bands. At the bottom, a cross-section of a purple geode with numerous crystalline facets. The text 'ROCK ON' is centered and overlaid on the malachite.
Description: The Mistress Of Copper Mountain is a popular Russian fairytale figure who controls the rich mineral deposits of the Ural Mountains. She wears a malachite dress and has lizard servants (sometimes appears as a lizard herself!). She has rooms of different stones - here she is pictured with her garden of copper flowers, bees of gold, and walls of lapis lazuli.
Description: Malchite sunbird in flight amongst red and orange aloes. This original photograph taken in Midlands of KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa by Scotch Macaskill will appeal to bird lovers, birdwatchers, birders and African wildlife followers. Makes a great gift for bird watchers and Africa wildlife supporters. The malachite sunbird (Nectarinia famosa) is a small nectarivorous bird found from the highlands of Ethiopia southwards to South Africa. They favor nectar from aloes and will feed by either perching on the flower or hovering while feeding.
