Draenert | Colin Side Table | Verde Bamboo Stone

Dimensions: diameter 50 x 45cm high
Material: top: verde bamboo stone 20mm | bottom: solid grey coloured glass 10mm

Age: 570 million years (Precambrian)
Origin: Brazil

Petrography: Essentially, the lighter lines consist of a fine grain mixture of quartz and feldspar. If larger portions of the mineral epidote are included, the colour changes to yellow-green. The dark, very fine crystal lines contain in addition the dark silicates biotite and chlorite. Along this line structure also longer, fine cracks can be found, which are visible and perceptible. They originate from the time of generation of the rock, are grown together minerals and are, therefore, no problem for the static of a plate.

Petrogenesis: A very changeable former volcanic tuff, which has been later on subjected to a metamorphosis in the earth crust under high pressures and temperatures. As unsteady as the depositing cycles of originally volcanic ashes with sandy-clayish sediments were, as changing are the lines of this unique working rock. Mostly light and darker layers are in balance with each other. Sometimes, it may occur that the darker portions predominate. Every plate of this rock is a unique!
