Eventually the wood is completely mineralized, often preserving minute structural detail. Over millions of years, water bearing silica trickles down through the sediment and the silica forms crystals in the cells and hollows of the wood. The petrification process occurs when wood becomes buried under sediment, such as volcanic ash (most petrified wood is associated with volcanic activity), and is preserved due to a lack of oxygen, inhibiting aerobic decomposition. This means that more-or-less all of the original organic materials have been replaced with minerals. Petrified wood is the result of a tree's trunk or limbs having turned into stone by the process of permineralization. They are a unique way to enhance your home's décor.
