Description from the seller

Rare and fantastic natural sculpture of trilobites from the Devonian period.
On this matrix, we find as many as 10 specimens.
In a prominent display, we find a Drotops Megalomanicus about 14 cm long.
They alternate as if they want to emerge from the stone, Barrandeops Granulosus and Hypsipariops, which reach 8 cm, and finally, six specimens of Cyphaspis Walteri with an average length of 3.5 cm.
Beautiful and challenging preparation, given the large quantity of trilobites arranged in the most unusual positions.
A collectible object and a perfect decorative element for lovers of these fascinating lifestyles.

Dimensions: 310×260×100 mm
Weight: 5100 g
