This extraordinary specimen is a rare piece of ancient Earth history — fossilized wood from the Triassic Age, approximately 200 million years old, now encrusted with a breathtaking layer of sparkling Quartz crystals. The surface shimmers with the brilliance of what looks like a million tiny diamonds, creating a dazzling visual effect that must be seen to be believed.
Discovered in the mid-1980s in the now-closed fossil wood mines of Zwenkau, near Leipzig, Germany, this piece is not only geologically significant but also increasingly hard to come by. The fossil wood structure is perfectly preserved, and the Quartz overlay adds a mesmerizing, almost magical finish.
Highlights:
Authentic fossil wood from the Triassic period
Fully coated in glittering Quartz crystals
Rare find from a closed mine site
Exceptional for collectors, museums, or display
Natural fusion of organic form and mineral sparkle
A true conversation piece and a once-in-a-lifetime addition for those who appreciate the wonders of deep time and natural beauty.
