Aesthetic Paralegoceras evolutum Permian Fossil Ammonoid

Description: The difference between fine art and nature’s natural creative processes are often a topic of endless debate. This rare and magnificent piece is arguably both. Note the opalised, drusey fine crystalline interior of the ammonite air chambers. The base color is a muted tan with some patchy purple/brown shadings. It was professionally prepared and polished to reveal the outer lustrous veneer and inner sparkling radiance. It would make a wonderful decorative piece, or, an inspired gift to any lover of nature’s creative genius.
