Really exclusive - magnificent Lytoceras ammonite - museum item - handmade base - Fossil fragment - 390 mm - 387 mm

Magnificent specimen of Lytoceras from Madagascar. Although it is only a fragment, its ornamental and distinctive appearance makes it a truly fascinating piece.
Lytoceras is a species of ammonite that lived during the Jurassic period, characterized by a very pronounced spiral and a shell decorated with intricate designs and ridges. This fragment preserves part of its original shape, showing some turns of the spiral at the top, while at the bottom, where only a section of the larger chamber is present, some of the distinctive decorations can be appreciated at both ends.
A creative display. It has been placed on a base made of wood and iron, which adds a touch of rusticity and elegance to its presentation. The wooden base offers a natural contrast to the hardness of the ammonite fossil, while the use of iron helps create an element of stability and originality.
The ammonite itself has been carefully cleaned and polished to highlight the details of its chambers. This fragment of fossilized ammonite conveys a sense of ancient history and invites us to contemplate the beauty and complexity of past life on Earth.
