A good stone for meditation and also for sphere making, this petrified wood mineralized as common opal belongs to the Peachfront Press collection... As many of you already know, petrified wood is a fossil created when the cells of a once-living tree are replaced by minerals, in this case, common opal, which is responsible for its somewhat glossy appearance even though these specimens are completely natural and have never been cut or polished. The message may be "courage through change" -- wear or work with it yourself and see what message you receive.
Peachfront received these stones from a collector living near George, Washington... I guess it's inevitable that there would be a town called George in the state of Washington.
