Magatamas are among the oldest known forms of gemstones and amulets; historical finds from burial mounds are known from around 1000 BC. Even today, the shape of the magatama is still important as a popular jewelry symbol. The symbol represents the human spirit and is considered a powerful amulet that provides effective protection against evil spirits.
Translated from Japanese, magatama means "curved pearl".
The magatamas made of Malachite (stabilized) are 3.2 x 1.6 cm in size; diameter of the hole 3 mm.
Malachite is used in gemstone healing when a gemstone is needed to support determination and imagination.
Origin of the Malachite rough: Zaire (Democratic Republic of Congo, Central Africa)
