This fossilized Orthoceras Plaque, which measures approximately 10-3/4" by
4" by 1-1/4", highlights three (3) Orthoceras in
relief. The fossilized structures are preserved in black
marble and white calcite, and held in a stunning,
naturally formed matrix with tiny marine fossils embedded
in stone. The plaque has been hand-polished to show the
interior animal structures, which display their beauty
best when brightly lit. Our Orthoceras Plaques, with
their dramatic black and white coloring, are very
popular pieces for both home design and geological
collections.
Orthoceras are extinct cephalopods that
lived in the ocean which once covered the Sahara Desert
about 400 million years ago (during the Devonian period).
The modern-day squid, octopus, and chambered nautilus are
also cephalopods. We have other sizes in stock, so email
us or call 1-877-WE ROCK U if you're interested in a
larger or smaller plaque.

Please note: this plaque requires special packaging due to its fragility, so extra charges have been added to the shipping weight. |
