Description from the seller
Ammonite fossils in natural matrix, a fossil block containing two perfectly preserved ammonites of the genus Cleoniceras, remaining in their original position inside the natural matrix just as found. This extraordinary specimen comes from Madagascar and dates to the Albian (Early Cretaceous, about 110 million years ago), a geological era dominated by tropical seas, in which the landmasses were fragmented and largely submerged by inland seas.
The two shells, polished, reveal a spectacular network of complex sutures and hues ranging from copper to honey, alternating with grey-green inserts of the original matrix. Their symmetrical arrangement and the integrity of the whorls make them an authentic scenographic fossil, capable of transporting the observer to a primordial era dominated by oceans and extraordinarily beautiful extinct creatures.
All of it is mounted on an elegant black metal stand, transforming this natural specimen into a paleontological relic of great decorative impact, ideal for studies, collections, or environments inspired by the charm of ancient nature
