Marble Slide

£18.00 ex VAT

Crinoid Stems - Lancashire

£4.00 – £10.00 ex VAT

£1.50 ex VAT

Excellent examples of bivalve fossil specimens which show the shells have been agatised, giving them an orange almost semi transparent colour and vitreous lustre, the morphology of the shells have been preserved very well as agate weather or deteriorates almost not at all as opposed to other minerals at the surface. The shells are between 20 to 40 mm in size and come from Morocco, unfortunately, for the time being, we do not have much more information regarding them such as specific species or age. But the unique agatisation of the samples makes them much more interesting to observe. Supplied in lots of 5 pieces, they come packaged in a polythene bag with information label.
