Petrified Wood Tumble Stone

Petrified wood is the fossilized wood that is turned into stone by a mineralization process called petrifaction, where minerals like silica replace the organic material of the original wood, preserving its three-dimensional structure and intricate wood grain patterns. It is essentially wood that has become rock, forming a fossilized, three-dimensional representation of the plant rather than just an imprint. Petrified wood is used as a gemstone, for jewelry, and in ornaments due to its durability and unique aesthetic qualities.
