Description
LARGE SLAB OF TEXAS PETRIFIED WOODAlangium
Eocene
McMullen County, Texas, USA
Although Alangium used to grow in North America, it hasn't for a very long time. Back in the Eocene, Alangium was fairly widespread. The slab was cut from a log found on a very large cattle ranch near the town of Tilden in McMullen County, Texas. Both the color and preservation on the slab are outstanding, and the piece is solid and large enough for consideration as a small end table. Similar to the modern Dogwood tree, Alangium grew in a climate that was warmer and wetter during the Eocene. Alangium is now only found in Asia, India and parts of Africa. This slab, easily over 15 inches no matter how it is measured, is definitely a Texas-sized piece of Petrified Wood. The colors on the piece range from light taupe to black and the grain patterns are exceedingly fine.
Overall Measurements: 17.25 x 15.5 x 1 inches (43.82 x 39.37 x 2.54 cm)
Offered at no reserve.
