Nature's Masterpiece: Polished Ammonite Fossil Set!
Ammonites, predatory molluscs resembling shelled squids, featured eyes, tentacles, and distinctive spiral shells akin to nautiluses. While closely related to living octopuses, they graced the fossil record around 240 million years ago. Remarkably enduring, their last lineages vanished 65 million years ago, marking the end of the Cretaceous period. Through intricate fossilization processes, these molluscs left behind beautifully preserved spiral shells. Unearth the ancient legacy of these captivating cephalopods, preserved in time for us to marvel at their intriguing past. Includes a pair if display stands.
