Petrified wood art and furniture
One of the more striking pieces I spotted at the Tucson gem and mineral shows today is this conference table [right] made of a single slab of Arizona petrified wood.
Ralph Thompson with Russell-Zuhl Petrified Wood in Massachusetts, polishes slabs all year as art pieces and furniture and displays them only at the Tucson show.
I did not ask prices.

If it is true petrified wood that means it is rock. How much does it sell for?
ReplyDeleteHi Lee--
ReplyDeletehave you visited Jim Grey's Petrified Wood Co. in Holbrook?

I've driven past the Holbrook storage yard with acres of petrified logs but haven't stopped in. It's overwelming.
ReplyDeleteAnd as I mentioned in my post, I did not check prices on the furniture pieces. But last year we saw a circular petrified wood table exquisitely set in a hard wood base, that went for $14,000. So you can get an idea on the high end.
Hello sir,
ReplyDeleteyou have a nice wood. Is that from a jungle?
Can you supply it to other country?

Hello Lee, Re: Jim Gray's Petrified Wood Co., it is hardly a storage yard. I suggest you stop in.
ReplyDeleteSuch table cannot be use in offices, but these can be use in restaurants etc.
