Polish your Petoskey stones!

A petoskey stone, before and after it gets polished. The fossil pattern is more pronounced after polishing.

There are probably other fossilized coral rocks found on shores around the world, but Petoskey stones specifically can only be found around Lake Michigan!

Yes! I immediately thought of these. I have never been to Michigan, but most of my family has lived there and my dad was born there. I wore my Petoskey earrings the other day ✨️
