Seller's Story

Lithologia is a company specialized in the preparation and sale of fossils. My name is Laurent and I have been passionate about fossils since childhood. I created the company Lithologia many years ago now, and I have been active both in the field and in the preparation workshop for over 30 years. The company's showcase is the online sales site LITHOLOGIA_COM, which offers a selection of high-quality fossils, in different ranges, from specimens of systematics to museum pieces. Finally, and this is certainly one of my great pride, I prepare a good part of the fossils that I offer for sale myself. I buy them unprepared and I do the clearance work in my own laboratory by implementing the technique best suited to each specimen. My great experience in different preparation techniques allows me to verify with certainty the quality of the specimens that I offer.
