      Looks more like a wasp nest.

      If OP hadn’t said “petrified” it looks just like a paper wasp nest - that color and curve.

      But I could be wrong, really cool though! I’m only a little jealous

        Sometimes things do that if they transition phases slowly. One side drying faster than the other for example.

    This looks a lot like pieces of coral my family brought back from costa rica. Very cool find.

      At a cellular tower site. I have small periods of time, throughout the day, that I can stare at the gravel. Rooftops can be a good spot to look, as well.

    I’ve seen ceramic in industrial applications that kind of look like this, but I’m not seeing any pores in the material though.
