This beautiful piece is Blue Opalized Petrified Wood from Garut, West Java.

It is a natural fossilized wood that formed over millions of years, when ancient trees were buried by volcanic materials and gradually replaced by silica-rich minerals. Through this slow geological process, the original wood structure was preserved while transforming into stone.

The striking blue coloration comes from opalization, where silica gel filled the wood’s cellular structure and later hardened into opal. This process gives the fossil its unique blue tones, soft translucency, and natural patterns that still reflect the original grain of the ancient tree.
