Malachite Hippo

We’ve had hippos before—but none quite like this. Carved from the highest quality malachite we’ve ever sourced, this Malachite Hippo is truly exceptional. The rich, swirling bands of deep green are vibrant and velvety, and the carving is remarkably well-executed, capturing the grounded, powerful energy of this water-loving guardian. Hippos symbolize strength, emotional depth, and protective presence—making this piece a beautiful ally for those learning to hold space and stand their ground. Like the Strength card in tarot, it radiates quiet power, resilience, and heart-centered courage.
