Fossilized Palm Root Shield Pendant

Fossilized palm root (also known as palmwood or petrified palm root) is an ancient, silicified remnant of prehistoric palm trees, where organic matter was replaced by silica-rich minerals over millions of years. It is primarily found in Indonesia and the US Southwest, often featuring earthy brown-to-black, speckled, or root-like patterns. This stone measures about 1.5 x 1.15 x .3 inches and is set into a sterling silver pendant. It comes with a base metal chain.
