Metaphysical Traditions:
Traditionally regarded as a stone of deep time and ancestry, linking the wearer to what came before.
 
Cool Facts:
Petrified wood is not wood at all - silica-rich water replaced the original tissue cell by cell, leaving a stone copy.
The replacement is so faithful that growth rings, bark texture and even insect damage survive.
Some petrified forests are over two hundred million years old, older than the first flowering plants.
