{"product_id":"sphere-petrified-wood-2-2-5","title":"Petrified Wood Sphere - 2.0-2.5 inch","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Petrified Wood Sphere is polished to a high shine, showing the preserved grain and ring structure of the ancient wood wrapping around its curved surface in browns, greys, and tan. Each Sphere is a single piece, so the grain pattern and the exact size and weight are unique to it. At 2 to 2.5 inches it has a substantial, dense feel in the hand, cool and weighted with the endurance of geological time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePetrified Wood is traditionally associated with Protection and Grounding, valued for ancient wisdom and deep stability. It is commonly kept for grounding and anchoring, the sphere form spreading that steady presence evenly in every direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this is a natural fossil material, the grain, colour, and exact size vary from sphere to sphere, so the piece you receive will be uniquely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Properties\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Focus: Protection \u0026amp; Grounding\u003cbr\u003eSecondary Focus: Balance \u0026amp; Harmony\u003cbr\u003eChakra Association: Root\u003cbr\u003eZodiac Sign: Taurus, Virgo\u003cbr\u003eChinese Zodiac: Ox\u003cbr\u003eRuling Planet: Saturn\u003cbr\u003eElements: Earth\u003cbr\u003eMohs Hardness: 7\u003cbr\u003eStone Family: Sedimentary Rock\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Natural Petrified Wood\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Madagascar\u003cbr\u003eForm: Sphere\u003cbr\u003eFinish: High polish\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Size: 52-64 mm (2.0-2.5 inches)\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Weight: 150-278 g\u003cbr\u003eListing: Single unit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeological Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePetrified Wood is a silicified fossil, a silicon dioxide pseudomorph with a Mohs hardness of 7 and a trigonal crystal system, formed when ancient wood is gradually replaced by silica molecule by molecule while preserving the original cellular structure, a process that occurs over millions of years in silica-rich groundwater. The preserved grain and ring patterns are physically verifiable and wrap around the polished sphere, and the material has been recognised across many cultures as a connection to ancient time, held sacred in Native American traditions of the Southwest as material connected to ancestors and deep time. The Arizona Petrified Forest contains trees from the Triassic period, approximately 225 million years old. Its origin is Madagascar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
