Description
This stunning cut and polished ammonite fossil hails from the world-famous Jurassic Coast of Dorset, UK. Dating back to the Jurassic period, this ammonite specimen is a beautiful example of an extinct marine cephalopod, sliced and polished to reveal its intricate internal chamber structure.
These internal chambers, once filled with gas or liquid for buoyancy, are now preserved in crystalline or calcified form, displaying captivating mineral patterns and natural symmetry. The slicing and polishing process enhances both the beauty and scientific value of the fossil.
The fossil shown in the photo is the exact specimen you will receive. Scale rule squares or cube = 1cm. A perfect addition to any fossil, educational, or interior decor collection.
