AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Excellent ammonites Aioloceras with very striking hollow chambers. The specimen has chambers with a beautiful geode. Since the chambers are hollow, it is very fragile and very difficult to work with. This specimen has been cut and polished to showcase its impressive colors present in the chambers. A top-quality specimen, extraordinarily difficult to find. A museum-worthy specimen.
Ammonite dimensions: 156 x 130 x 34 mm
Plastic supports included
