AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Ancient shell of a marine bivalve, about 8 cm, displayed on a wooden stand with metal rods, in the spirit of a cabinet of curiosities.
The shell is characterized by its great thickness, highly pronounced undulating growth strata, and the presence of calcareous marine concretions (tubules and natural deposits), indicating a long sojourn in a marine environment.
The interior is smoother and clearer, contrasting with the rough, mineral-like appearance of the exterior surface.
The overall morphology and texture resemble ancient bivalves of the thick oyster type, with no definite specific identification.
Authentic specimen, unrestored, mounted for decorative display.
