Title: Beautiful slice of petrified wood on a custom standMaker:UnknownOrigin: IndonesiaDate/Period:NEOGENE-Miocene, Aquitanian (20.44–23.03 million years)Materials:Petrified Wood, steelDimensions:Height including stand: 22.2 cm / 8.7 inches Width: 25.7 cm / 10.1 inchesDescription:A beautiful slice of petrified wood displayed on a custom stand. Petrified wood is a mineralized piece of ancient tree that formed when trees were buried under layers of soil or sand, often as a result of natural events. Over millions of years, the organic material was replaced by minerals, preserving the wood’s natural structure. The colors within petrified wood come from the minerals present in the surrounding sediment, with each mineral producing its own hue. This remarkable process of petrification ensures that details such as bark, knots, and growth rings remain visible. In some cases, crystal formations developed during fossilization, adding depth and vibrant color variations. A fascinating and decorative piece of natural history, combining geology, time, and beauty.
