Peanut Wood (Opalised) — The Stone of Ancestral Resilience & Ocean Transformation

Size: 9x6 cm

Weight:80g

Appearance & Formation:
Peanut Wood is a fascinating fossilised driftwood from ancient Australia, most notably the Pilbara and Shark Bay regions. Its name comes from the creamy, oval “peanut-shaped” patterns created when tiny marine creatures bored into the wood before petrification. In its rare opalised form, silica-rich waters have replaced the original wood fibres with luminous opal, infusing flashes of iridescent colour amid deep chocolates, earthy tans, and creamy inclusions. Formed over millions of years in prehistoric seas, it carries the story of land meeting ocean in perfect harmony.

Metaphysical Healing Properties:
Peanut Wood Opalised is a master of endurance and adaptability. Its energy speaks of survival through immense change — perfect for those navigating major life transitions or seeking to anchor themselves during turbulent times. It encourages patience, perseverance, and faith in life’s unfolding journey, while its opalisation adds a layer of creative inspiration and emotional healing, opening the mind to fresh possibilities without losing grounding.
