Calvin Nelson crafted this bolo and decided to let the stone speak for itself by using a simple bezel setting. One core malachite meaning is how the stone is considered the essence of joy and known as the "stone of transformation" because it helps reveal and heal emotional pain by absorbing the pain into itself. It is especially helpful in bringing ease during times of change and gives the insight needed for personal growth. Malachite is said to help a person get through tough transitional periods making it a wonderful, empowering stone to wear when starting a new project or job or moving to a new home.
