[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 287987, member: 2976"] I can't decide - on one hand it is curved like a piece of tree trunk/branch with what look like evenly spaced growth rings, virtually all identical in contour, even tiny dips look exactly replicated in each one. One band is darker, which you can see in recently cut timber if the tree was exposed to fire at some stage. On the other hand, the back surface does remind me of sandstone as shivan says. I've picked up heaps of petrified wood but I can't recall any of it having a gritty textured surface. [/QUOTE]
