Petrified palm root cab ~
Offered here is an unusual collector's cabochon of petrified palm root, newly arrived GEM material from Sumatra. This outstanding fossil wood is a fascinating piece of the earth's natural history. This example has a wild pattern of tiny tube-like spots through the middle, with a few windblown bullseyes at the large end. The other end is jet black, showing some woodgrain and tiny pools of translucent blue agate. Plenty of contrast here, and incredibly well preserved details. Very unique! No fossil collection is complete without a nice example of this amazing new palm root. But it ought to make a fabulous item of jewelry too. -smile- The cab has a well rounded dome of 6mm, an elegant designer drop shape, and a brilliant polish both front and back.
