Petrified Wood Bookends Cypress Tree Polished Rock Washington
This is a lovely set of bookends hand crafted from Petrified Cypress Wood from Saddle Mountain, Washington.
It was found in the Columbia River Basalt Formation.
The natural Petrified Wood bookends stand 6.5 inches and they are each 3.6 inches wide and 1.6 inches thick.
They are lined with felt to protect your books and furniture.
From the Miocene epoch of the Cenozoic era, about 15 million years old.
This gemstone is the fossilized wood of cypress trees. The Petrified Wood formed when the 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.
Metaphysical Properties: Petrified Wood is a stone of patience and slow and steady growth.
