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.
Dimensions: 36 cm x 36 cm x 15 cm
Weight: 8,6 Kg

Great pattern and colours. A one of a kind piece.
Cleoniceras besairiei (Collignon, 1949), cut and polished pair. They are lovely specimens that show the individual chambers of the Ammonite in great detail with all interior cristalized. They are from the Lower Cretaceous – Albian period (100 – 115 million years) from Mitsinjo, near Majunga.
Think of the Ammonite spirals as a filter, drawing in these dense energies which are no longer needed, moving them through the spirals and releasing them as fresh, positive, loving life force energies. The Ammonite is a very powerful earth healing fossil.
Ammonites are often used for activating Kundalini and life path energies. It is often recommended to keep an Ammonite in your home to attract health, prosperity and success.

Diplomystus Dentatus fish from the Paleogene, Eocene, 53.500,000 to 48.500,000 years.
An ancestor of the herring family, a very finely boned fish which is extremely difficult to prepare from the Lagerstätte varve layer of the Eocene limestones of the Green River formation 18-inch layer.
These predator fish came from the prehistoric fossil lakes. The lower Eocene deposits of Green River formation was thought to be a large freshwater lake. The calcite would be absorbed by the remains of the fish, transforming their bones into a hard mineralized deposit in the slightly softer and lighter colored limestone shales.
Mounted in a handmade brass frame that can be fixed in three different ways.

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.
