Opalized Wood
Nevada, USA
9.1 x 6.8 x 4.5 cm (3.6 x 2.7 x 1.8 in)

A striking, fan-shaped section of Opalized wood that vividly displays radiant veins of green, blue, and white Opal across two polished faces. The colorful and highly opalescent mineraloid winds through rich, brown growth rings of petrified wood, revealing a dramatic interplay of organic structure and brilliant color. These attributes, paired with its distinct form and strong contrast, make this a highly collectible piece for both fossil and mineral enthusiasts.
