Photos are not definative, but looks like wood from this distance.

I think it looks more like a rock than wood! Just kidding. I'm one of the worst for identifying petrified wood...unless it looks like wood! LOL - However, I too would say this was petrified wood from the looks of the pictures.

Sure looks like wood to me, especially that third pic. The only other thing it sort of resembles would be fossilized ivory. But almost certainly it's petrified wood. I'm wondering the same as Pat. What did the other people think it was?

It was my uncle. He usually knows what he's talking about but in this case he just dismissed it and said it wasn't petrified wood. But he didn't really know what else he thought it is.

Uncle might change his mind if he sees it cut like in pic 3. Otherwise it does have kind of a feldspar-y look.
