Petrified Palm Wood Pendants
Petrified palm wood pendants bring millions of years of natural history to your jewelry collection. This fossilized material formed when ancient palm trees absorbed minerals over time, replacing organic matter with silica while preserving the original cellular structure. Each pendant displays the characteristic spotted or dotted pattern created by the palm's vascular bundles. Our collection of 28,529 pieces ranges from $16 to $11,402, with every stone set in .925 sterling silver and backed by free US shipping.

Ancient Fossilized Palm Root Set in Sterling Silver
Petrified palm wood, sometimes called palmwood or palm root, comes primarily from Indonesia, Louisiana, and Texas. The stone rates 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it durable enough for regular wear. What sets this material apart from standard petrified wood is its distinctive pattern: cross-sections reveal dots and spots where the vascular bundles once transported nutrients through the living palm. Lengthwise cuts show elongated streaks instead. The color range includes tan, brown, black, gray, and occasionally blue-gray tones depending on the minerals present during fossilization. Iron produces reddish-brown hues while manganese creates darker areas. Since 2005, SilverRush Style has sourced natural stones and paired them with solid sterling silver settings made from .925 silver. Browse our full selection to find a petrified palm wood pendant that fits your style and budget. Each piece ships free within the United States.How old is petrified palm wood?
Most petrified palm wood ranges from 20 to 40 million years old, dating to the Oligocene and Miocene epochs when palm forests covered much larger areas than they do today.
Is petrified palm wood the same as petrified wood?
Petrified palm wood is a specific type of petrified wood that comes from palm trees. It shows a spotted dot pattern rather than the tree ring patterns found in standard petrified wood from conifers or hardwoods.
How do I care for a petrified palm wood pendant?
Clean your pendant with warm water and mild soap using a soft cloth. The stone's 6.5-7 Mohs hardness makes it resistant to scratching, but store it separately from harder gemstones like diamonds or sapphires.
