Description from the seller

Fossils, exceptional.



PECTEN BENEDICTA FRANCE

A fossil Pecten is the remains of a shell, more precisely from the family Pectinidae, which lived in the past and was transformed into rock through geological processes. Pectens, known for their shells shaped like scallop shells, are marine bivalve mollusks that have been collected from deep waters, and their fossil remains are often found in sedimentary rocks.

Very decorative plaques - very rare and difficult to extract, an exceptional specimen due to its size and aesthetic quality. It is a museum piece.
Collectible piece base .......
Express courier + insurance

The object is large and will be packed in a special and appropriate box.
