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.
Carcharocles megalodon - Neogen - Miocene, Burdigalian (15.97 - 20.44 million years) - Indonesia.
A large and superb tooth, with a wonderful colouration, as characterise the megalodon of Indonesia.
Carcharocles megalodon - Neogen - Miocene, Burdigalian (15.97 - 20.44 million years) - Indonesia. A huge, extra large and superb tooth, with a wonderful colouration, as characterise the megalodon of Indonesia. Beautiful teeth with a colour very similar to those of Chile and Peru, deposits closed for a long time. These megalodons have been on the market very recently.
Beautiful Lamna Aschersoni shark teeth, Cretaceous (145 – 66 million years).
Pristine tooth, big size.
From Oued Zem - Morocco.
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.

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.
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.
Nicaisolopha nicaisei from Upper Cretaceous of Cajamarca Peru, mounted in a white lacquered wood base.
Aioloceras besairiei Lower Cretaceous, Albian period (100,5 – 113,0 million years ) from Mahajanga, Madagascar, in a black lacquered wood base.
Beautiful twin Aioloceras ammonite with most of the original nacreous shell layers (mother of pearl) preserved. Both sides have been prepared.
Pleuroceras solare - Pyritised Lower Jurassic Ammonite from Germany, mounted in an iron base.
A pyritised ammonite, which has been brass brushed to enhance the golden colour.
Hawskerense Subzone, Spinatum Zone, Middle Lias, Lower Jurassic, Butterheim, Germany Age:- 190 Million Years Old Ammonite.
Metacanthina barrandei from the Middle Devonian period (395 million years) of the Djebel Issoumour area, Atlas Mountains - Morocco.
Mounted in a black lacquered wood base.
An exceptional Museum Quality slab with five Gigantopecten restitutensis fossil from Vaucluse quarry in S.E. France.
Lower Miocene (Burdigalien), around 20 to 16 million years.
It is very well prepared and clean, a "one of a kind" piece!
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.
Coelacanth Devonian Fossil Nodule
This well-preserved specimen is a Lower Triassic (247 million years old) Coelacanth fossil from the Karoo Formation of Madagascar.
It is encapsulated within a concretion that has been meticulously split into perfect halves. While various types of fossilized fish are discovered in these nodules, Coelacanths are among the rarer specimens in the fauna. The specimen exhibits incredible detail, showcasing fins, scales, and the distinctive bony head structure.
This exceptional piece is elegantly presented in a natural marble vertical display.
