A multicolored piece of opal having replaced petrified wood, from one of the most classic US opal localities. These fossils which retain part of the limb shape are particularly desirable. Polished on front and sides, natural on back. This is from a section of tree wood and it is clearer in person, that it is the case. Opalization is nearly complete, with little original fossil material left. Ex. Charlie Key Collection.
