The intense color variety makes this specimen especially spectacular. Bright red, orange, gold, brown, and amber tones merge into a fascinating play of colors reminiscent of a glowing sunset. The natural grain of the fossil wood runs elegantly throughout the entire egg and is complemented by fine mineral inclusions as well as authentic growth structures. Each side reveals new details, making this unique piece a focal point from every angle. The harmonious egg shape traditionally symbolizes life, renewal, and perfection. The elaborate high-gloss polish brings out the extraordinary colors, depths, and natural structures particularly effectively and gives the fossil a striking spatial effect.

Natural Petrified Wood Egg Weight: 4423,43g Size: 170x100mm Treatment: None Origin: Madagascar It is a fossil wood dating back 200 million years, all parts from a log or branches have been silicified, meaning that organic components were little by little replaced by silicon in the form of jasper, chalcedony and more rarely opal. Without the organic parts, all the living matter was replaced by stone : there are growth rings, cell separations, almost like worm cracks. Its features are those of the mineral that would have pseudo-transformed the wood : the silicon. And that’s what we call a "petrified wood" in the common language. The disclaimer about the healing properties as previously given : It is believed that certain gemstones and minerals have beneficial health and spiritual properties.
