It is a very soft stone, beautyfull to look and great feel in somebody knows please seek for information
Could it be malachite perhaps?
Possibly serpentine?
You are right, Alaa. Serpentine is more likely...
I agree with Alaa, I think these are serpentine.
I agree with Serpentine.. Mined and cut to beads in the same regions as Amazonite.
Great to learn here and from you! Are these genuine old like the amazonite with this similar cut?
About this shaped amazonite I saw a bead exhibited in the MET NY describing it as hinduvalley 2700 bc how does that fit?
Could also be jade, which comes in different colors.
It's softer then jade
These are way softer than jade, mos of the time they come with very advanced wear around the holes
