AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An interesting pair of mammoth fossils, the hip socket of the pelvis and the corresponding femoral head.
To make this discovery even more exclusive and to properly position the remains of these bones, we created a base in wood and brass, hand-turned.
Elegant and refined, it will be a pleasure for the eyes when displayed in a salon or studio.
The Mammuthus primigenius, also known as the woolly mammoth, was one of the last mammoths to inhabit our planet. Living between 200,000 and 5,000 years ago, they diverged from other mammoths to adapt to the cold climates of the north: they were smaller, had a very dense and thick coat of hair, with hairs that could reach a meter in length; they had smaller ears but larger tusks, and they developed a sort of hump that served as an adipose deposit for periods of scarcity.

Dimensions: 430×300×190 mm
Weight: 4670 g
Epoch: Pleistocene
Origin: North Seas

Seller's Story

The Mineral Art Gallery offers minerals, fossils, shells and natural elements. Born in Italy in 2017, today she collaborates with international galleries and collectors, she is a direct importer of large minerals and naturalistic collectible elements; deals with the processing to insert them inside the living space. A section of the gallery was dedicated to the Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders or cabinet of curiosities" in which Mirabilia elements are presented: naturalia and italiania, a union between "the present is the past". All lots are shipped via DHL Express and Fercam couriers, with insured parcel and tracking.
