Care for product
Gemstones are known to withstand the harshest of environments. In order to further ensure that every generation experiences the true luster of your Ma Passion creation, we recommend our connoisseurs to carefully clean the carving with a wet cotton ball once a year. In order to further bring out the polish, one can dip some cotton in a thin oil, run it through the carving, leave the oil overnight, and then proceed to remove the remaining oil with a wet cotton on the next day. This process can also be done annually.

Sitting Buddha in Meditation Pose in Petrified Wood (ISF-3820)
Sourced from Madagascar, Petrified Wood is a stone that is formed when tree trunks get buried due to natural sedimentation. Groundwater, rich in minerals, flows through the inner parts of the tree bark, initiating crystallization of the organic contents of the decaying tree. Over millions of years, the bark gets harder with the addition of preserved minerals, and the resulting stone exhibits details of the inner cellular structures of the bygone tree trunk. A true symbol of ancient nature, this Ma Passion creation exhibits Buddha in a classic meditation pose; focused and calm. Carved by an accomplished craftsman, this piece serves as a reminder of patience, resilience, and faith.
