Fossil Wood Top Quality Sphere - Height: 92 mm - Width: 92 mm- 981 g
Fossil wood, in addition to being a beautiful design object, is also a fascinating piece of history to keep at home.
The process of petrification of wood is very long, requires approximately a thousand years, and requires particular conditions for it to take place: it generally occurs when a tree falls in conditions of absence of air in order to allow the fossilization process.
In this specimen from Madagascar we have a beautiful piece in various colors, with a prevalence of various shades of red and various bands or streaks in white and brown. On one side there is also a long crack which has maintained the appearance of a split in the wood.
