Description from the seller
Ammonite fossil Esericeras Eseri composed of shell and original matrix.
Professional preparation from all angles. No part of the fossil was left 'in the rock.'
The suture lines in this specimen are very pronounced and fascinating, as they feature a double coloration; in some areas of the shell, they are traced, while in others, they are raised.
The coloration of the fossil is predominantly in shades of red, with some brown and black areas.
A very special coloration combined with the craftsmanship of the matrix, which literally acts as a pedestal for the Ammonite, makes this specimen a valuable collector's item.
Fossil originating from Lyon, France, where it is possible to find specimens of the highest quality.
Dimensions: 200 x 195 x 42 mm
Weight: 1825 g
