This pendant features petrified palm root, a fossilized material formed when ancient palm wood was slowly replaced by minerals over millions of years. Unlike typical petrified wood, palm root reveals distinctive cellular patterns and natural banding created by the plant’s dense root structure. Each piece offers a glimpse into deep time, preserving organic textures within solid stone.
The stone is hand wrapped in warm copper wire, shaped to follow the natural contours of the fossil. Copper has long been valued for its durability and conductivity, making it a natural complement to fossil materials that carry a sense of grounding and permanence. The result is a balanced blend of ancient earth history and intentional craftsmanship.
Metaphysically, petrified palm root is often associated with stability, grounding, and ancestral connection. It is believed to support patience, resilience, and a steady sense of inner strength, making it a meaningful stone for those seeking balance during periods of change. Many view fossil stones as anchors, offering calm perspective and a reminder of slow, enduring growth.
This is a one-of-a-kind pendant, comes with an 18" brass chain with a lobster claw clasp.
