Ebony & Malachite Handle

The handle of this knife combines two materials with strong symbolic and visual presence. Ebony is one of the densest and most prestigious woods in fine craftsmanship — known for its jet-black color, smooth texture, and exceptional durability. Polished to a satin sheen, it radiates quiet elegance and timeless strength.

Set into this dark canvas is a slice of natural malachite, a green gemstone prized since antiquity for its swirling bands and vibrant energy. Its layers evoke mineral landscapes and organic motion, offering a rich visual contrast to the depth of the ebony. The malachite is individually shaped and fitted by hand, making every handle as unique as a fingerprint.

Together, ebony and malachite create a dialogue between darkness and light, stability and motion, tradition and rarity — making this knife a true expression of nature elevated by human skill.
