Agatized Blue Forest Petrified Wood

The Blue Forest agatized petrified wood site is east of Fontenelle Wyoming and not far from the fossil fish quarries of Kemmerer. But it's a very difficult site to find as it's located in the middle of nowhere. But a local rock shop in Kemmerer, run by a long-time collector, has a large amount of Blue Forest material for sale (and it's not cheap). Here are photos of a few pieces of this top-quality pet. wood in this shop.

The pieces in the top 2 photos were several thousand $ each (I forget the exact amounts).  Maybe next year I will buy a (much) lower cost piece.

Here's a piece of Blue Forest Wood I acquired many years ago.
For sale if anyone's interested.

Thanks for the pictures, Victor! Awesome specimens!
The blue ones are incredible but the two sitting on the window sill in your last pic are very interesting.

Pretty piece, dave. I'll ask John.
