Placenticeras intercalare
Height 47 cm
Width 41 cm
Depth 20 cm
(with stand)
These stunning fossils belonged to marine animals who swam through prehistoric oceans between 240 and 65 million years ago. The unique spectrum of colours come from ‘ammolite’ - a rare iridescent material formed when the shell of an ammonite survives fossilisation under remarkably specific conditions.
Occasionally, flashes of deep ultramarine blue – the rarest and most sought-after colour found in the ammonite will appear, like this one. A truly rare and extraordinary piece of natural history.
