PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Zimbabwe’s Remarkable Petrified Wood Collection
Discover the rich array of petrified wood from Zimbabwe, primarily dating back to the Miocene epoch. Our collection features large, striking slices as well as a select assortment of polished items. Known for its density and exceptional hardness, often resembling ironwood, Zimbabwean petrified wood presents both a challenge and an opportunity for detailed craftsmanship.
The variety of wood colors, enhanced through the petrification process, adds significant visual appeal to each specimen. This fascinating process involves the gradual replacement of organic material with minerals, preserving the original structures of the wood in stone. Each piece offers a geological snapshot of the Miocene, often linked botanically to ancient forest ecosystems.
Petrified wood from Zimbabwe is more than just a fossil; it’s a tangible connection to the earth's ancient biological history. Ideal for collectors and educational purposes, each piece captures a moment in time where organic life transitioned into a lasting mineral legacy.
Explore our collection to connect with the deep past and appreciate the extraordinary beauty of Zimbabwe’s petrified wood.
