Kenny Chavez

S O L D Archeological evidence indicates that the mineral has been mined and smelted at Timna Valley in Israel for over 3,000 years. Except for its vibrant green color, the properties of malachite are similar to those of azurite and aggregates of the two minerals occur frequently. Malachite is more common than azurite and is typically associated with copper deposits around limestones. It is mined in the Urals Mountains in Russia, large deposits are aso located in Republic of the Congo, Australia and in the American Southwest mainly in Arizona. Kenny has created this little badger from a piece of malachite which is predominately dark green with some lighter bands of green. The bottom shows a bullseye inclusion which is a common trait of the African varieties. The eyes are inlaid of Sleeping Beauty turquoise and the fetish is signed Chavez in his usual manner. It would make a great pocket fetish. If you would like to read more about the Badger's characteristics and attributes click here. And click here to hear "Badger" in Shiwi, the language of Zuni.
