A coral fossil at Portishead that we chose to leave for someone else to enjoy. Sometimes a close look and a video are the best keepsakes. Opalised petrified fossil wood from the Miocene epoch, originating from Mount Cidolog, West Java, Indonesia. Preserved wood grain, opal hues and a polished finish make each specimen distinctive, with a Certificate of Authenticity included. SKU: FP8709.
