AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This round table is a true work of natural art, a blend of modern design and prehistoric beauty. The surface of the table is enriched with an extraordinary collection of ammonite fossils, carefully selected and arranged harmoniously, then covered with a layer of transparent resin that protects them and highlights their details. Each ammonite, with its intricate spirals and natural shades of warm colors — ranging from deep brown to beige, and soft gray — tells an ancient story of millions of years, making this piece unique in its kind.
The transparent resin provides a smooth, glossy finish that not only protects the fossils but also creates an elegant visual effect, enhancing the depth and contrast of colors and shapes. The arrangement of the ammonites, resembling a mosaic, captures the eye and invites the viewer to lose themselves in the details of each spiral, which seems to tell the story of the prehistoric seas from which they originate.
Perfect as a design element for an elegant and sophisticated environment, this table with ammonite fossils is more than just a piece of furniture: it is a true collector's item, capable of transporting anyone on a journey through time and natural beauty. Ideal for those who love to surround themselves with objects rich in history and meaning, it is a choice that enhances any space, from private homes to formal settings.
