Madagascar Copal Amber with leaves and insects, mounted in a handmade dark brass base.
Amber is a substance derived from resins (Fossil Resin) of trees and plants that, buried for millions of years, underwent into a fossilization process.
These resins produced by plants acted as protection against the action of bacteria and against the attack of insects that punctured the bark until reaching the interior of the trees.
Over millions of years, amber-forming organic substances ended up forming a hardened, weather-resistant resin.

Finest quality Ammonite sliced - Cristal clusters - with beautiful colors in an elegant iron stand.
Aioloceras besairiei (>140mm) Lower Cretaceous, Albian (100.5–113.0 million years), from Mahajanga , Madagascar.
This ammonite sliced in two parts has been polished for showing the breathtaking inside colors and patterns!
Stunning ammonite with red opalization on the surface, in a white lacquered wood base.. Ammonites were predatory mollusks that resemble the squid we know today.
These cephalopods had eyes, tentacles, and spiral shells. Ammonites are closely related to a living octopus, though the shells resemble that of a nautilus.
Every stone is unique and one of a kind. These fossils come from the Mahajanga River Basin, near the village of Ambatolafia of northwest Madagascar, located in the former province of Mahajanga/Majunga. They are dated from the Early Cretaceous period, Albian age (100 to 113.0 million years ago).

Orthoceras column fossil, a captivating relic hailing from a time more than 400 million years ago. These prehistoric squid-like beings, preserved through eons within oceanic sediments, offer an unparalleled glimpse into the past. Elegantly aligned by primordial currents on the ocean floor prior to their entombment, these creatures maintain their relative positions, frozen in the embrace of time.
Skillfully revealed through meticulous exposure and a masterful polish, the fossils come to life against their matrix backdrop. The artful interplay of light and shadow accentuates the delicate features of these long-extinct cephalopods. With their tentacles and ink sacs, reminiscent of their modern-day squid counterparts, these creatures possessed a mystique that transcends eras. Notably, these cephalopods boasted external shells, characterized by hollow internal chambers partitioned by intricate walls known as septa, a fascinating trait shared by their kin.
Originating from the Devonian period approximately 410 million years in the past, this fossil bears witness to the eons that have passed, finding its origin amidst the rugged landscapes of the Anti-Atlas Mountains in Southern Morocco.
Polished Orthoceras slab fossil with over 400 million years.
As these forms of prehistoric squid were covered in ocean sediments prior to fossilization, the majority of the creatures will be facing in the same relative position, having been lined up by currents on the sea floor prior to being buried. The fossils are exposed and given a high polish to better view the creatures from their surrounding matrix.
The slab features very high relief as well as dramatic texture and detail they had tentacles and ink sacs, much like present-day squid. Except for belemnites, cephalopods had external shells with hollow internal chambers separated by walls called septa. Devonian period, circa 410 million years, Anti-Atlas Mountains - Southern Morocco - mounted in a black granite base.
Jimbacrinus Bostocki (Crinoid Fossil - Ordovician 488 million years)
This is a rare piece, mass mortality plate of Jimbacrinus bostocki crinoid fossils from Western Australia with over 8 individuals on it.
These crinoids are 3D and have a very alien appearance.
The plate is 32cm x 20cm and has been nicely prepared.
These Jimbacrinus crinoids are hard to acquire due to Australia's strict fossil export laws.
This specimen was exported legally during the 80's and was part of a collection for years before being recently re-prepared.
