“I’m happy to finally be able to commercialize my passion to market at a broad scale and bring this stunning, semi-precious material application,” explained Jamie O’Brien, the creative force behind the company. “Fòssięl will be offering products from countries in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, Thailand, and Burma, as well as other nations, such as Madagascar and Brazil, and the United States. My material is between 20,000,000 and 280,000,000 years old.”

Petrified wood was once organic material – ancient, living trees. Over time, minerals slowly replaced the woody tissue in a process known as permineralization, perfectly preserving this once-organic material into fossilized stone. Incredibly beautiful, no two pieces are identical, and O’Brien brings out the material’s unique colors and rich textures through special production processes. The result? Incomparable and hyper-unique additions to the home. From one-of-a-kind countertops and sink basins to patio pavers older than the human species and dating back through the times of the dinosaurs.

Fòssięl offers home décor, furnishings, and even landscaping items crafted from petrified wood from the Miocene Epoch, Cenozoic - Mesozoic Eras, and Jurassic - Triassic Periods, transforming raw materials into dramatic home décor and accent pieces, stunning furnishings, and more. Fòssięl sells slices, slabs, and planks for customers with a more DIY attitude, wishing to create their customized furnishings.
