Description: Petrified wood is fossilized wood, from Latin petro meaning "rock" or "stone." Petrifaction is the result of a tree or tree-like plants having transitioned to stone by a mineralization process. Over a few million years, those minerals will crystallize, resulting in a rock that appropriates the shape and structure of the original organic materials. The petrifaction process occurs underground when wood becomes buried in water-saturated sediment or volcanic ash that inhibits aerobic decomposition by bacteria and fungi. This is a beautiful greenish, brown, white sandy and black-color Petrified Wood from the Pacific Northwest. An exquisite piece with a glossy polished finish on one side while the rest left bare to show its unique wood grain. The unpolished side is multi-colors (with some glossy brown) and has some glistening crystal minerals. This is a piece of natural wonders, signifying a beautiful transformation. It is a great welcoming addition to rock collection for educational or ornamental purposes and will accentuate any decors. At the largest dimensions, it measures approximately 6 1/4” L x 5 1/2" W x 2" H, weighs 1.2 lbs.
