Description
This stunning ancient shell is a genuine fossilized ammonite, sliced is half to reveal the crystalized internal chambers.
Fossilized ammonites are most commonly traced back to the lower Jurrasic and Cretaceous time period, when the ancient oceans were teeming with cephelapod life forms, now extinct. Once a living organism, this ammonite was turned to stone through petrification, a process that replaces organic matter into sediment and minerals over millions of years.
This fossilized ammonite is perfect to display on any office desk or bookshelf, and will also make a great gift.
Measures approximately 2.25" x 2.75". Actual ammonite shown.
