thanks for checking out this auction if you have any questions feel free to message me
"Indonesia Opal Wood" typically refers to a type of petrified wood found in Indonesia that exhibits opalescent or iridescent qualities. Petrified wood is formed when organic material such as trees or plants undergoes fossilization, where the original organic material is replaced by minerals such as silica, often resulting in a stone-like appearance.
Opalized or opalescent petrified wood occurs when the silica replacement process also incorporates opal, a hydrated form of silica known for its iridescent play of color. This can create striking patterns and colors within the fossilized wood, giving it a unique and visually appealing appearance.
Indonesia is known for its rich deposits of petrified wood, including specimens with opalized qualities. These pieces are often sought after by collectors and lapidaries for their beauty and rarity. They may be used in various applications, including as decorative objects, jewelry, and in lapidary arts such as carving and cabochon cutting.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
