Description from the seller
The Cleoniceras ammonites from the Early Cretaceous, originating from Madagascar, are fossil works of art sculpted by nature itself. Dating back to the Albian, these shells tell us the story of marine evolution during the Cretaceous, offering a unique window into Madagascar's geological past.
The Cleoniceras ammonites add a touch of refinement and mystery to any environment. Whether placed in a private residence, a luxury hotel, or an architectural setting, these fossil artworks will transform spaces into places of charm and contemplation.
Cleoniceras is a well-known species of ammonite among paleontology enthusiasts. These marine cephalopods had coiled shells with distinct ribbing that set them apart from other ammonites. The analysis of Cleoniceras fossils has provided valuable insights into paleogeography, biology, and the evolution of these fascinating Cretaceous creatures.
