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.

Superb, unbroken slab filled with wonderful naturally occurring orthoceras fossils that was once part of the prehistoric ocean floor over 400 million years ago.
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.
This magnificent pair of table trays is crafted from twin slices of Araucaria petrified wood, dating back to the Triassic period—an astonishing 220 million years ago. Originating from the Ambilobe region in Northern Madagascar, these slices showcase dramatic patterns and rich, natural colors that highlight their ancient origins.
To elevate their elegance and functionality, each slice has been expertly mounted with nickel-plated brass hardware, transforming them into a perfectly matched pair of unique table trays. Rare and truly one-of-a-kind, these trays are not only a testament to Earth's history but also a stunning addition to any home or collection.
