AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Offered here is an impressive associated pair of Sauropod caudal vertebrae, collected from the iconic Morrison Formation (Late Jurassic, USA).

The two vertebrae are preserved in natural sequence, a condition that is exceptionally difficult to encounter in the field due to the enormous size of sauropod skeletons and the intense taphonomic processes that typically scatter vertebral chains over large areas.

Both vertebrae are mounted on a custom display stand combining plexiglass and forged iron, ensuring excellent stability and a clean, museum-style presentation.

Largest vertebra size: approximately 8 × 6 × 6 cm.

Condition: Complete, consolidated, and well prepared.

Origin: Morrison Formation, USA

Age: Late Jurassic (~150 million years)

The rarity of finding contiguous vertebrae from sauropods cannot be overstated. These colossal animals often left behind remains that were severely disarticulated, making associated pieces such as this pair particularly sought-after by collectors.

A remarkable display specimen that captures both the scientific importance and the aesthetic appeal of Jurassic giants.

Shipping: Carefully packed and shipped with tracking.
Note: Please ensure compliance with local regulations regarding the acquisition and transport of fossil material.

Seller's Story

Don & Donna Fossils finally moved to Spain. We are a Don & Donna Fossils, a couple united by the love of exploration, field research, professional preparation and museum display of fossils from all over the world. This formula, combined with a desire to improve, makes us a winning team dedicated to our Fossil World. Larisa is been passionate about fossils since was a child. Her strengths are perfectionism, perseverance and creativity, hence her ability to work and prepare these fossils as authentic, unique and aesthetic as possible. The pieces with which she is famous and which she boast the most are spiny ammonites. I, Don, started fossil hunting in 1987, going from a passionate collector to a professional preparator and researcher. In all these years I have traveled searching for fossils in many parts of the world. Our fossils are present in private collections in the United States, Singapore, Taiwan, as well as in prestigious museums in the Uk, China and Japan. Quality in the preparation of the material and seriousness in managing the shipment in the best possible way distinguish us. Don & Donna
