Petrified Juniper Wood, Cherry Creek Nevada - Polished Fossil
Petrified Juniper Wood from Cherry Creek, Nevada – Double-Sided Polished Fossil Slab
A Reddish-Brown Collector Specimen from a Private Collection
A distinctive piece of petrified wood from Cherry Creek, Nevada, USA, featuring attractive reddish-brown colouring and a natural pattern formed during the fossilisation of ancient wood. Polished on both sides, this specimen reveals its character from different viewing angles and is suitable for display in a fossil collection, natural history cabinet or mineral and geological collection.
Petrified wood forms when the original wood structure is gradually replaced by minerals while elements of its original grain and growth structure may remain visible. The characteristic red, reddish-brown and brown tones associated with Cherry Creek petrified wood make specimens from this locality particularly appealing to collectors of geological material and natural history objects.
This specimen comes from a private collection and is supplied with the two wooden holders shown in the photographs.
