Description
Petrified wood is an unusual material that is used to create stylish interior artifacts. It retains the wood texture of tropical trees from the distant past. Its amazing color depends on the minerals that have replaced plant organic matter. A ball made of such material will look great both in the office and in the living room, giving the interior a touch of exoticism and aristocracy.
