Slab Mountain offers you this stone slab of natural petrified rot wood measuring 3 inches across at it's widest point and the thickness of this slab is 6.5mm. Not polished. Pictures show the stone wet in the first and second picture and dry in the others. May have fractures, natural pitting, or saw marks. You get exactly what is in the picture. Would make a nice display specimen as well. These are sold for lapidary art and when the stone is wet or polished, the colors stand out much more. Your stone slab will be sent to you dry so the colors will be somewhat muted compared to the first and second pictures. Pictures are taken in the sunlight.
Ever wonder what the value of petrified wood is? Here's a guide that explains how much petrified wood is worth and what affects its value.
This listing is for a single (1) Petrified Wood Slab. Please note that these are stock photos of a few of the polished Petrified Wood slabs that we have available. These are natural Petrified Wood Crystals and Gemstones, so each stone will be unique and have variations in natural characteristics such as Size, Shape, Inclusions, and Color. Size ~ ~1.5" - 4.25" This is a beautiful display piece that can be placed any where in the home. My favorite place is in the very center of the home giving a positive feeling and protects the entire house. (Grounding • Healing • Protection) Metaphysical Properties: Petrified Wood was once an ancient, living, breathing tree that has fossilized over thousands of years. Petrified Wood forms over time, when a tree has died, then is replaced with minerals and silicon dioxide forms in place of the wood that degrades until there is no wood left, only Agate and sometimes Quartz, Jasper, or even opal. Petrified wood has been around practically since time began. All of the markings and patterning in these petrified wood stones are from the original tree’s growth rings and knots. Eventually, all of the wood becomes replaced with Quartz Crystal, and the energies of the wood and quartz have become naturally merged. A Petrified Wood Stone is an extremely healing, grounding and protecting stone. It calms your nerves and fears, filling you with feelings of wellbeing and security. Petrified wood is stone of transformation and powerful in removing obstacles. Use it to assist in reaching goals that you are having trouble with or to smooth a path for any endeavor that you anticipate will be ridden with difficult barriers. The petrified wood meaning is ideal for meditation, as it helps you to distinguish between what is important and what is not—helping you to stop focusing and worry about the little things. Due to the way it is formed, Petrified Wood healing properties are all connected strongly with the energies of the Earth. These stones carry powerful wood and earth energies to help activate and cleanse the root chakra and third eye chakra. For anyone that lives in the city, placing Petrified Wood stones in your home is a wonderful way to bring the vibration of nature in your home. They are also said to be great stones for business success. Quartz: brings strength and clarity to the intellect, aiding concentration and memory retention, and filtering out distractions. Quartz is a master healer crystal, and may be used for any condition. Amplifies the intensity of energy from other stones. It is a stone of clarity which dispels negativity and clears away negative energy. It can be used to purify and clarify on the spiritual, , and physical planes. It is powerfully protective because of these properties.

Lapidary Artistry ~ by LostSierra
Artist José Manuel Castro López works with rocks both large and small to transform hard surfaces into gentle fabric-like creases. Each sculpture begins as a regular piece of quartz or granite which he delicately grinds down to reveal peculiar wrinkled shapes, as if the rock had always existed this way. You can see many more of his recent works in this gallery.(via Ignant) More
