Petrified Conifer Wood Polished Stone Bookends Rock Lovely bookends from Petrified Conifer Wood from Arizona. These pieces are each about 5.5 inches high, 5.25 inches at its widest and 1.5 inches thick. They are polished on front, sliced but unpolished on the back and left natural rough around the edges. They are covered with black felt in the inside and on the bottom to protect you furniture. This gemstone is the fossilized wood of sequoia trees. The petrified wood formed when a tree died and was buried by sediments. Minerals in the groundwater then permeated the wood, replacing the original organic matter and turning it to stone. The main mineral is silica, but trace elements in the silica create a variety of colors. Petrified wood is very hard and takes an excellent polish, making it a great stone for jewelry.
