PN806 Petrified Palm Wood

$20.00

Here’s a something a little different, a beautiful pendant made from beautiful Petrified Palm Wood.  This pendant measures 25mm x 50mm with a 1/8″ bail and total length of 2 1/4″.  It is yet another great creation, made in South Dakota by the Rock Shed crew. A truly one-of-a-kind original!  (see the note below if you are interested in how they are made).

Description

Petrified Wood is a type of a fossil as it consists of fossil wood where all the organic materials have been replaced with minerals while retaining the original structure of the wood.  These minerals are most often Silicates such as Quartz.  Other minerals, Manganese, Iron and Copper, in the water or mud during the petrification process gives Petrified Wood a variety of color ranges: black – Carbon; green/blue – Copper; red/brown/yellow – Iron.  Petrified Wood can preserve the original structure of the wood in all its detail all the way down to the microscopic level.  Structures such as tree rings and the various tissues are often observed features.  Although Petrified Wood can be found worldwide, it is rather rare in larger quantities and at times can be difficult to obtain by the average collector.
