AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

We present a beautiful nacreous ammonite fossil made into a pendant, set with silver-colored metal and a silver-toned cord chain, dimensions: 3 cm high, 2.5 cm wide, originating from Madagascar, showing brown, yellow, and reddish tones due to its natural iridescence. It belonged to the Middle Devonian period, about 400 million years ago. Its name comes from the Egyptian god Amun, who was often depicted with ram horns, due to the spiral shape of its shell. They are highly valued for their great paleontological and geological significance. They are attributed with properties of renewal, protection and connection with the natural flow of life.

Undoubtedly an exquisite piece for collectors. A declaration sheet is provided.
The winner of the bid will be responsible for customs charges incurred outside the European Union.
