Canoe-Shaped Decorative Petrified Wood Bowl

This stunning 36-inch long, canoe-shaped decorative dish is a one-of-a-kind piece of natural history. Handcrafted from beautifully preserved, Triassic-aged petrified wood, it showcases vibrant mineral colors and intricate wood grain patterns formed over millions of years.

The petrified wood used to create this dish was collected near Ambilobe, Madagascar — a region well known for producing some of the world’s most colorful fossilized wood. Carefully shaped and polished by hand, the piece highlights the remarkable transformation of ancient trees into stone while maintaining the organic character of the original wood.

Both functional and sculptural, this elongated petrified wood dish makes an extraordinary centerpiece, display accent, or conversation piece — blending prehistoric beauty with timeless craftsmanship.
