Green retailer Malachite Bangle Bracelet, Gemstone Bracelet

I was so excited when I saw this bracelet. The woman to whom it belonged said she purchased it in Somalia. I did find a manufacturer of these bracelets located in the Republic of Congo, not too far from Somalia. A lot of malachite is sourced from there.

This bracelet is a composite of inlayed pieces with especially beautiful markings. It's in very good vintage condition aside from retailer one little chip as can be seen in picture.
