Toutes les enchères / Ethnographie / High-Quality Carved Congolese Malachite Obelisk...


Magnificent Obelisk with rich banding and concentric patterns — Malachite Obelisks of extra quality, Katanga Mines of Congo. An elegant and sophisticated furnishing accessory that traces its roots to historical tradition. The use of the Malachite obelisk as an ornamental element has ancient origins. Malachite has been mined and used since ancient times, with traces dating back more than 4,000 years. The peoples of ancient Egypt considered it a sacred mineral, associated with the goddess Hathor. Originally, obelisks were stone monuments erected by the ancient Egyptians as symbols of power and religious devotion. The very shape of the obelisk represents a frozen ray of sunlight in stone, a tribute to the sun god Ra.
