Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:426338 |
Opalized Conifer (Araucariaceae Family)OligoceneSpringsure, Queensland, Australia Outstanding Australian opalized wood of a really interesting conifer. The uneven growth pattern evidenced by those intersecting growth rings is a condition that we see every once in a while and mainly in conifers. Perhaps climate conditions, insect infestation in the foliage or even root fungus may have been the cause – it is not possible to exactly determine... the cause from simply observing the odd pattern. It’s an interesting disruption making this a fine representative of this Queensland, Australia locality. It measures 7" x 6" on polished face and is a slab 1/2" thick.
