This log is truly what Blue Forest petrified wood is all about! This 100% complete and perfectly preserved log has a full algae cast suspending the agate infused petrified log forever frozen inside! The blue agate pattern laced through the wood grain is as nice as you’re ever going to see! The blue agate is accented with golden yellow calcite crystals in several areas. There is a lot of the namesake blue agate revealed in the cut and polished face as well. There’s more color and pattern in this one than most by far and it’s an extra large piece to boot. It’s a gorgeous and fascinating natural fossil treasure and a true museum piece! It’s cut as a stand-up with a flat base to display as it sits in the photos! Here’s an absolutely remarkable petrified wood log from a larger sized tree that was preserved in Wyoming’s Blue Forest petrified wood deposit. This one is beyond nice – I’ve never seen its equal in a museum and only the most dedicated Blue Forest collectors have pieces of this caliber in their own collections. It has a really interesting, perfectly preserved feathered wood grain surface, and lots of agate surrounding it. This one has an extremely well defined, highly polished agate face with some of the prettiest, high contrast wood I’ve ever seen in one of these logs. Most of these specimens are pepper wood, and this finely preserved fossil is consistent with those. There is more than enough detail captured here for the hobby hound or paleobotanist to easily classify it. This nice log is really a choice specimen from this location. This wood comes from a sagebrush desert in central Wyoming. The digging is hot and dusty, but every once in a while you stumble on a real treasure and this little log is one of them! The rich, coffee and black colors the wood is preserved in are characteristic of these specimens, as are the infusions of blue agate that filled the cracks and coated the log! There are also multiple openings near the “bark” that have filed in with golden calcite which just looks beautiful in contrast to the rich blue agate. Much of the exterior is still coated in the fossil algae that preserved these ancient treasures in a long lost tropical swamp. This is a good sized section from the end of a very large log. It’s roughly 7″ x 6″ across the mirror polished face while it stands about 5/12 tall on the longest edge and weighs about 12.42 lbs. It has been cut and polished on our specially built lapidary equipment to produce a mirror perfect, unparalleled shine to show off all the gemmy detail and spectacular fossil beauty inside. It really took a pretty awesome polish even by our unmatched standards! A nice, unique naturally wonderful stone collectible exclusively from Sticks-in-Stones Lapidary.
