Impressive Large Ammonite Fossil – Perisphinctes sp. – Cretaceous – Madagascar

This magnificent and massive fossilized ammonite of the species Perisphinctes is a true statement piece for any serious fossil enthusiast or interior design collector.

Whether displayed in a cabinet, on a pedestal, or as a centerpiece in a living or working space, this ammonite offers a fascinating glimpse into prehistoric marine life combined with a timeless decorative elegance.
