Petrified or fossilised wood is the name given to a special type of fossilised remains of terrestrial vegetation. It is the result of a tree or tree-like plants having completely transitioned to stone by the process of per-mineralisation.
All of the organic matter has been replaced with minerals, preserving the original structure of the stem tissue. Unlike other types of fossils which are typically impressions or compressions, petrified wood is a three-dimensional representation of the original organic material.
These fossil earrings can provide a perfect gift for fans of geology, palaeontology and history, as well as nature lovers.
