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.

This beautiful ammonite is a Jurassic Cleoniceras from Madagascar that preserves part of the original mother-of-pearl iridescent shell.

The Ammonite doesn't have any gluing work, the fracture lines on the shell are internal and do not affect the integrity of the fossil.

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.

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.

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.

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. 

Carcharodon Megalodon (Megalodon meaning “Big Tooth”) is an extinct species of shark regarded as one of the largest and most powerful predators in vertebrate history.

This beast lived approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago, during the Cenozoic Era. Fossil remains suggest that this giant shark reached a length of 18 metres (59 ft), from USA.
