Thick, Colorful Polished Petrified Wood - 7.7" Long

This is a thick slab of Early Triassic aged (220 million year old) petrified Araucaria wood from Ambilobe, Madagascar. One side has been polished to a mirror like finish allowing the beautifully colored wood detail to be seen. It's 7.7x3.2 inches, 1 1/2 inches thick and weighs about 3 lbs. It was originally part of a book end pair that split due to natural fracture in the rock but looks great as a stand alone piece. Two edges are lined with black felt.
