Meso Petrified Wood Book Ends

Product Description

This pair of petrified wood bookends make fascinating & useful room additions that will fascinate as much as they decorate. The term petrified originates from the Greek word petro meaning wood turned into stone, & these two slices of history are beautifully presented as bookends. This petrified wood is several thousand years old & was quarried from the ground in Java. The curved, ragged edges signify the bark of what was once a tree, with its randomly coloured fossilised wood inner polished to an irresistible high shine. What better way to preserve your most treasured book collection than with these this heavy & unique display pieces that are truly a slice of history. The marble-like shine of the faces accentuates its ancient rock heritage, while the outer edges retain the original texture of the bark. Other petrified wood room accents are also available in the Meso collection to extend the theme. As these bookends are authentic petrified wood, some natural variations may occur.
