PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Madagascar’s Exquisite Petrified Wood Creations
Red Podocarpus podocarpus Petrified Wood from Mahajanga, Madagascar, is a remarkable fossil wood with rich, earthy red and brown hues. This petrified wood originated from the ancient Podocarpus tree, a coniferous species that thrived millions of years ago. Through a natural process of mineralization, the organic material of the wood has been replaced by minerals like Silica, Iron, and Manganese, preserving the tree’s structure in stunning, stone-like form.
