Description from the seller
Set of Three Fossil Spheres
A distinguished trio of fossil spheres, each crafted from exceptional geological material that preserves the history of ancient life. The set includes one fossil coral sphere, one calcite geode containing ammonite fragments, and one fossil sauropod bone sphere.
The fossil coral sphere measures 6.4 cm in diameter and weighs 390 g. Its polished surface displays characteristic circular structures formed by prehistoric coral colonies from the Lower Cretaceous, offering a clear window into ancient marine environments.
The calcite geode sphere with embedded ammonite fragments measures 6.4 cm in diameter and weighs 325 g. The natural opening reveals warm-toned calcite crystals surrounding sections of fossilized ammonite, combining mineral brilliance with remnants of ancient marine life.
The fossil sauropod bone sphere measures 6.3 cm in diameter and weighs 360 g. Its intricate texture reflects the internal structure of dinosaur bone, showcasing a piece of prehistoric terrestrial history shaped into an elegant decorative form.
Together these three spheres form a refined and scientifically meaningful ensemble, ideal for collectors and enthusiasts of natural history.
