FAQs
How big is each size?
Each option is a diameter range. A 50 to 60mm sphere fits in the palm, while a 70 to 80mm sphere makes a substantial display piece.
Is petrified wood real wood?
It began as wood, but over time minerals replaced the plant material, turning it into stone while preserving the original grain.
Does a stand come with the sphere?
The sphere is sold on its own. A small ring or cup stand keeps it steady and protects the polished surface.
What Is Petrified Wood?
Petrified wood forms when fallen trees are buried in sediment and mineral-rich water slowly replaces the wood with silica, usually quartz or chalcedony. The process can take millions of years and often preserves growth rings, bark texture, and grain in remarkable detail. Iron and other minerals add the warm browns, reds, and grays seen in polished pieces. It is a true fossil and a favorite with collectors.
