Description from the seller
Rare and perfectly preserved specimen of Ammonite Phylloceratida, characterized by a surface with Aragonite crystallization and lines.
Very clear and well-visible sutures of the septa of the filloide type.
Another characteristic of this specimen is the termination of the ventral side, which was cut along the suture lines to create a three-dimensional effect.
To display this Ammonite in your collection or in a corner of your home as a decorative element, we have created a stand in polished steel that securely yet unobtrusively surrounds the fossil, allowing it to be observed from any angle.
If you want to own a piece of history that is both elegant and captivating, don't miss out on this lot.
Ammonite Dimension: 230 x 170 x 125 mm
Height with stand: 280 mm
Weight: 5410 g
Origin: Befandrine, Madagascar
