Description
Petrified wood section (length x width): 41 ¾ x 33 in. (106 x 83.8 cm)
Flirting the line of abstract expressionism, this example of petrified wood swirls with greens, reds, blues and yellows, interspersed with areas of quartz. Buried deep beneath volcanic ash, this specimen slowly petrified into an incredible mineral over millions of years in which solutions of silica loaded with iron and manganese seeped into the sunken tree. This masterful display of nature’s subconscious art has been preserved in a functional table; a hardwood border following closely to the contours of the original log has been flush fitted to the highly polished petrified wood, resulting in an exquisite piece of furniture. The rich color of the wood table highlights the deep natural colors of the ancient fossil, creating a statement piece that would fit with any décor. The wood slice measures 41 ¾ x 33 in. (length x width), while the table stands 17 x 50 ½ x 41 ½ in. (height x width x depth).
