This remarkable 8” x 5” x ½” slab of opalized wood, weighing 15 ounces, was hand-dug from a remote corner of the Nevada desert—an ancient relic of a long-lost forest, transformed over millennia into a luminous treasure. When backlit, it ignites with fiery hues of red, orange, yellow, and purple, as if the spirit of the tree still burns within. The intricate wood rings, frozen in opal, reveal hidden details that remain elusive under direct light—whispers of time locked in stone. Cut from an ancient opalized tree, this piece is a testament to nature’s artistry, a relic of fire and earth, shaped by the slow alchemy of ages.
