Manuel Quiring

Questa grande lastra fossile rappresenta una meraviglia paleontologica, un gioiello della biodiversità marina del periodo Siluriano. Proveniente della zona di Boutschrafin, vicino Erfoud, in Marocco, la lastra racchiude una meravigliosa varietà di crinoidi della specie Scyphocrinites Elegans, eccezionalmente preservati attraverso eoni.
I crinoidi, incastonati nella roccia, narra la storia di un'era che si estende da 443,8 a 419,2 milioni di anni fa, quando i mari erano dominati da queste affascinanti creature simili a fiori di mare. L'eccezionale stato di conservazione di questi Scyphocrinites Elegans ci permette di scrutare i dettagli più minuti delle loro forme, dalle sottili braccia utilizzate per filtrare il cibo fino ai complessi segmenti dei loro fusti, offrendo una finestra unica sugli intricati ecosistemi marini del Siluriano.
La procedura di estrazione porta alla luce lastre spezzate, necessitando di un'attenta e sapiente opera di ricostruzione per riportare alla luce la bellezza originaria, la roccia che fa da letto a questi inestimabili reperti è stata meticolosamente restaurata.
Un capolavoro naturale che incanta per la sua rara bellezza. Essa costituisce un'aggiunta preziosa a qualsiasi collezione di fossili, destinata a suscitare stupore e profonda riflessione in chiunque ne contempli lo splendore.
