Petrified wood - Triassic period
Polished finish on top
Period: The Triassic Schilderia (200 - 250 million years) is a tree species that has disappeared from the planet. These trees represent a very small part of the petrified forests of North America that we know today.
Note: Petrified wood is a type of fossil. The process of petrification occurs when wood is buried beneath a layer of sediment, where it first preserves itself due to a lack of oxygen. Mineral-rich water circulates through the sediment, gradually replacing the wood cells with minerals.
