Description from the seller

Cénoceras, a Jurassic nautiloid from the late Toarcian stage in France, dating back 185 million years.
Superb nautical space with all these visible partitions, making a very harmonious and aesthetic room.
It is clear on both sides, with its two umbilical marks visible.
It stands upright without support thanks to a limestone matrix base.
Note the coloration of the compartments.
Without any restoration - completely natural color.
