"M" is for Malachite

St Petersburg, Russia

Malachite is used for decorative purposes,
such as in the Malachite Room in the Hermitage Museum, which features this huge malachite vase.
In the time of Tsar Nicolas I decorative pieces with malachite were among the most popular diplomatic gifts.
It was use in China as far back as the Eastern Zhou period.
