Substantial Polished Petrified Fossilized Wood 5.5" Decorative Sphere / Orb
Located in Red Lion, PA
Substantial Polished Petrified Fossilized Wood Decorative Sphere / Orb, 5.5" Diameter, 6.5 lbs
This impressive petrified wood decorative sphere measures approximately 5.5 inches in diameter (16.5 inches in circumference) and weighs a substantial 6.4 pounds. Expertly polished to a luminous sheen, the orb showcases extraordinary natural variations in color from rich chocolate browns to warm amber honey, creamy beige, soft greys, and golden tan. The surface reveals mesmerizing natural patterns and textures, including swirling grain, delicate veining, subtle craquelure, and striking abstract formations that can only be found in fossilized wood. While polished smooth, the orb retains slight tactile variations, celebrating the organic character of this ancient material.
Petrified wood is formed over millions of years as mineral-rich water permeates buried wood, gradually replacing its cellular structure with quartz, chalcedony, or other minerals while preserving the original growth rings and textures. Each specimen is a unique work of nature, blending the warmth of wood with the permanence of stone. Collectors value petrified wood not only for its geological significance but also for its aesthetic qualities each piece is entirely unique, a frozen moment in natural history.
The sphere shape, long associated with harmony, wholeness, and timeless design, enhances the inherent beauty of the material. Unlike raw or slab-cut petrified wood, a polished orb emphasizes the depth of color, movement, and mineralization from every angle. Substantial in weight and presence, this piece makes a striking accent for a coffee table, bookshelf, or desktop. It can serve as a meditative object, a sculptural statement, or a thoughtful addition to a collection of natural history and decorative arts.
Highly collectible and increasingly sought-after, large polished petrified wood spheres such as this bring a sense of luxury, grounding energy, and conversation-worthy beauty into any space.
Condition: Excellent overall with natural surface variations inherent to petrified wood. Please see photos for details.
This is a timeless decorative object that bridges nature, design, and geology, an ideal addition for collectors of minerals, fossilized wood, decorative spheres, and natural history objects.

"Male Athlete with Kettlebell", Rare Bronze Sculpture with Male Nude by Seifert
By Franz Seifert
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This highly rare bronze of a nude male athlete preparing to left a heavy kettlebell weight was sculpted by an Austrian artist, Franz Seifert, in 1922. Although Seifert is known for his nude figures straining to accomplish physical tasks -- such as carrying a large bucket or splitting a stone -- this sculpture is the only example known to exist. A decade after this sculpture was cast, Seifert carved a marble portrait of Siegfried Marcus, inventor of the gasoline-powered car, for a monument in Vienna, which includes a nude male figure in bas relief racing forward on the upper edge of an automobile wheel. He also created a large sculpture grouping honoring Empress Elizabeth...

Antique Franz Bergman Bruno Zach Cold Painted Bronze Peacock with Fanned Train
By Bruno Zach, Franz Bergmann
Located in Cincinnati, OH
This fabulous bronze peacock was made at Franz Bergman's Vienna foundry and bears the name of sculptor Bruno Zach. The highly detailed sculpture is beautifully cast and features cold painted polychrome decoration. The peacock's crested head is turned slightly to the left and its magnificent fanned tail feathers - also known as a train - are realistically rendered and arch forward as they rise. The train has splayed feathers at both ends that rest flat on the display surface, preventing instability. The feathers have been finished with white shafts and greenish-gold vanes while the ornamental black eyespots are accented with metallic rose and copper colored paint. It should be noted that the back of the bird's train is also highly detailed lending visual interest if viewed from the front or the rear.
The peacock's head and body are painted in a silvery color while the painted decoration on the head includes large white masks and black eyes that are ringed in orange. The bird's angled beak is finished in yellow and has well defined upper and lower sections. The peacock's wings are positioned parallel to its body and extend back beyond the train. The outside of each wing is accented in mottled copper and black paint while the rear portions bear a series of painted copper and black stripes. The bird's thin legs are finished in gray and have black spurs at the back. Its long toes terminate in sharp black talons.
The peacock is in very good condition with no replacements or repairs. As an antique, the piece shows signs of age including minor areas of paint loss that are noted for accuracy. It stands 8" at the tallest point of the train and is 11.5" as measured across the widest points of the train. The piece is 3.25" at its deepest point. The back of the train bears a partially legible Bergman amphora-shaped foundry mark with a B at the center. It is also signed 'Zach' in cast at the underside of one section of tail feathers for sculptor Bruno Zach who had a history of collaborating with Bergman to edit and cast some of his works. The peacock weighs 3lbs 2oz.
