Summer time is here and it's time to fire up the grill! It looks like we're not the only ones excited for the season of sun... our ammonites are already starting the party!

Check out our new Polished and Natural Ammonite fossils and the stylish Ammonite & Abalone necklace in the shop right now! Plus, save 10% with code POOLPARTY!

This week, we've got three new sets of amazing ammonites in the shop! First up is the Natural Ammonite specimen. These handheld fossils come from Perisphinctes, an even older genus of Ammonite. They come from Late Jurassic deposits in Madagascar and are estimated to be over 150,000,000 years old!

The preservation level of these fossils is incredible; you can easily see the individual chambers of each turn in the shell. Holding such a detailed piece of a beautiful and ancient animal is truly an amazing experience.

Like other ammonites, Perisphinctes serves as an invaluable index fossil, allowing scientists to estimate the age of the geological layer in which they are found.

These ammonites are quite large and the perfect size to hold in your hand. You can feel each turn of the spiral as you study the construction of the amazing shells. They will delight any visitor and are perfect for display in every setting.

The fossils range from 1.5 - 2.5 inches and each is packed in a sturdy shipping carton. An informational card is also included.

We've also added these incredible "Sutured Shell" Ammonites! These Cleoniceras shells are polished to reveal the beautiful coloring and sutured patterns present within the fossil. They date to the Early Cretaceous, over 100 million years ago!

These fossils are quite large and incredible to hold in your hand. An acrylic stand is included with each shell which is perfect for display.

The shells of Cleoniceras are separated into chambers called septa, which show highly complex sutured patterning. These beautiful patterns disperse the stress of water pressure across a wider surface area, meaning the shell can remain strong at even far depths.

Today, these suture patterns give the ammonite fossil a mesmerizing look. You'll want to study these shells up close and personal!

Each sutured ammonite is sold individually and range in size from 4" to over 5"!

This is a necklace with a shine like no other... a fossil ammonite pendant that has been inlaid with iridescent abalone material. The outer chambers of the shell sparkle with blues, greens, and even purples!

Each pendant is set into a fine sterling silver backing and comes on an 18" chain. Pendants measure roughly an inch in length, though there is some variance in sizing. Additionally, we have two larger pendants available for individual sale.
