A Petrified Wood Slice from an Araucaria tree trunk, with truly wonderful colouration.
These are found in Madagascar near a town called Ambilobe, and date from the Triassic Period, 220 million years old.
The Araucaria Tree is a type of conifer that grew in the Triassic.

Petrified Wood is actually wood turned to stone through a process called permineralisation.
The organic matter is gradually replaced by minerals, and the amazing colours depend totally on the type of minerals that replace the wood.
The outer part still has the appearance of tree bark!

This is a beautiful and unusual display fossil for the home, and free standing.

Size: 36 cm diameter & Weight 6.8 kg.

Replica kam leider etwas beschädigt an. Mit dem Verkäufer aber schnell geeinigt, daher auch eine gute Bewertung. Verkäufer übernimmt eine 100 % Rückerstattung.

Yes, Correos Espana did a great job of smashing the Dinosaur to pieces. However, we told the buyer we would give a full refund, and he should retain the damaged article. It was securely packed in a large custom box with fragile tape all over the outside. It is regrettable that this occurred but the buyer has a full refund as customer service is of utmost importance to us.

Everything is ok,very good delivery and enchanting fossil!! Thank you very much,see you soon!!

Exactly as described, well-packaged although that didn't stop a small piece from breaking off. This was easily fixed, though. And did not damage any of the details of the fossils.
