These unique branches were hand-carved in Indonesia from petrified wood. Absolutely wonderful for connecting with nature or with the root chakra.
Petrified wood is fossilized wood that has been replaced by minerals like agate and quartz. The petrification process occurs underground and is affected by temperature, moisture content, and exclusion of oxygen. The stone is formed when trees fall into water and absorb minerals, producing a range of colours that have unique energetic effects. It is a stone of transformation and has grounding and protective properties as well as healing. It is beneficial for the immune system, muscles, bones, and nervous system. Petrified wood is mostly used for decorative pieces but has limited use in jewellery.
