MALACHITE SILK SCARF

Impressionistic interpretations of photographs from CISTHENE owner Jen Altman's book Gem and Stone: Jewels of Earth, Sea and Sky have been printed on 48"x48" crêpe de chine silk.

Malachite has been used ornamentally since the Early Dynastic period in Egypt. Carved into protective amulets and powdered for pigments in both paintings and eye cosmetics, the stone was honored among Egyptians and thought to be part of God's physical realm. Several cultures have also linked Malachite to children - it was used as a teething stone and believed to keep evil from children and encourage a restful nights sleep. It is associated with the sign of Taurus.
