Petrified Coffee Table, Round, Metal Black Base

Petrified Wood describes the fossilized remains of trees through a process called permineralization. The most common areas you can find petrified wood is earthquake-prone and volcanic areas of the world, when massive and rapid climate changes can bury entire forests. It is this lack of oxygen that allows for minerals and sediments to slowly replace the organic material, leaving behind a true three-dimensional representation of the original tree. Our petrified wood comes from Indonesia and dates as far back as 230 million years. Our artisans discover, cut and polish these miraculous pieces, creating beautiful conversation pieces for your home.
