Product Description:
Arizona petrified wood agate beads are truly unique natural gemstones formed from ancient fossilized wood that has undergone a remarkable transformation over millions of years. These smooth round beads showcase earthy tones such as browns, tans, creams, greys, and occasional hints of red, reflecting the natural grain and rings of the original wood.
