13" Colorful, Hubbard Basin Petrified Wood Slab - Nevada

This is a 13" wide, richly colored slab of Hubbard Basin petrified wood which has been highly polished to a mirror finish. It displays beautiful hues of oranges, browns, blues, reds, and whites. This is some of the most colorful petrified wood out there and the material. It comes with an acrylic display stand.

The polishing work on this piece is not the greatest with some scuff marks on the surface. If you are viewing it from a couple feet away you are not going to notice though. This is reflected in the price.

Found only in Elko County, Nevada, Hubbard Basin petrified wood is becoming increasingly popular with collectors. This variety of petrified wood is characterized by its tan or white-blue coloring that is often enhanced by red, orange, or brown patterns. Most Hubbard Basin petrified wood is Miocene-aged fossilized spruce wood. One of the main reasons collectors enjoy this petrified wood is because the growth rings are often nicely preserved and show through the vibrant patterns.
