The specimen was dug out by mistake, by diamond diggers. It was found
at 10 meters. This is an old ebony tree stump, it was tested and
found as one of the few well preserved Ebony trees in fossilized
state. It shows cells and year-rings. The outer layer of the wood
consist of soft white wood that petrified in a wheathered shape. The
inner core petrified as dense rock, which we polished to a sharp
point to show the great textures. This is a great decor piece for
corporate buildings. This is a rare piece. Location Namakwaland,
Northern Cape, South Africa. More detailed pictures can be send. |
