Drag the slab to turn it, or use the arrow keys. Switching finish re-renders the surface — polished throws a hard specular, the abraded finishes open the surface up and knock the colour back.
Brown semi-precious
Petrified Wood Retro
Also sold as Petrified Wood
Fossilised timber — growth rings turned to stone.
Wood that mineralised over millions of years, cut across the trunk so the growth rings survive as figure. Every panel is a cross-section of a single tree, and no two are the same age.

Photographs
Petrified Wood Retro in the yard
Photographs of our own blocks, slabs and finished work. Slab photography shows one slab — the block it came from is what you are quoted against.
Laid out
Petrified Wood Retro across a floor
A photograph shows one slab on a stand. This shows the stone tile after tile — where the pattern repeats, how far the tone drifts across a batch, and what the joint does to it. Every tile here is cut from a different part of the surface, the way material comes out of a real crate.
Indicative layout. Tone drift is deliberate — no two tiles from one batch match exactly, and a laid floor should never look like one photograph repeated.
In the room
Petrified Wood Retro against your wall colour
Nobody buys stone on a white background. Put Petrified Wood Retro on the floor, up the wall or across a worktop, set the colour it will actually sit against, and change the light — the same three questions every client asks on a site visit, answered before the sample ships.
A scene, not a render of your project: proportions are indicative and colour on a screen is never the colour in a room. Send us the drawings and we will lay the real slab sizes out against your setting-out.
Surface
Petrified Wood Retro, close up
The slab above turns; this is the same stone at the size it sits in your hand. Change the finish and it re-cuts.
Roughly a 130 mm span of Petrified Wood Retro, polished. A rendered preview, not a photograph of stock — ask for a physical sample before you specify.
