AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A refined display composition featuring three authentic fossil ammonites belonging to the genus Cleoniceras, expertly arranged on black metal mounts anchored to a rectangular base of fine light-grey granite.

​The set showcases a captivating combination of fossil preparations and mineral features: ranging from whole polished shells displaying rich honey and amber aragonitic patinas to a striking longitudinal section that reveals the delicate geometric inner septa. Positioned at staggered, ascending heights, the three specimens form a dynamic and harmonious sculptural arrangement.

​Ammonites were marine cephalopod molluscs that inhabited the oceans during the Cretaceous period before going extinct approximately 66 million years ago. The natural grey granite base provides optimal stability while creating a sophisticated, contemporary contrast with the warm, golden tones of the fossils. An exclusive decorative piece, ideal for luxury interior design projects, executive offices, and fine natural history collections.
