Description

Very big and heavy plate with several pyritized cross-cut crinoid stems, ammonite shells and a clam or brachiopod shell. Some of the small ammonites have been pressed heavily during fossilization - also the big one in the corner, which seems to be from a totally different kind. It shows worm burrows on the surface. As usual for fossils the plate has been varnished. A very beautiful and decorative specimen.

Asian and Australian customers please ask for shipping fees. Will be a little higher than general overseas shipping.
