Petrified Palm Wood Fossil Stone Cabochon This is lovely Petrified Palm Wood from Louisiana. In 1976, Lousisana named Petrified Palm Wood their official state fossil. Petrified wood is wood that has fossilized - all the original chemicals in the wood have been replaced with minerals, making a stone-like replica of the original wood. There are no growth rings in the Louisiana Palm Wood, instead it has a fibrous structure that cut one way produces polka dots, and cut another produces straws. Though usually baise, minerals present in the soil and water during petrification sometimes produced blacks or reds, and though rare, occassionally other colors. This lovely custom cut cabochon is cut at an unusual angle, so instead of polka dots it has streaks! It is an oval shape 49.5 mm long by 13 mm wide and 5.5 mm thick.
