Location of Origin: Ambatolafia Quarry, Boeny, Madagascar
Late Jurassic ~ 160 million years old
A relic of deep time, this Fossilised Ammonite from the Ambatolafia Quarry in Madagascar dates back to the Late Jurassic period. Its spiral form is preserved in rich, earthy tones with a high polish that reveals intricate chamber structures, mineral veining, and extraordinary dendritic patterning throughout the shell. These branching, fern-like formations were created by mineral-rich fluids moving through microscopic fractures over millions of years, producing naturally occurring patterns rarely seen with such density and clarity. Once a marine predator, now a sculptural testament to prehistoric life, this piece merges natural history, geology, and design into a singular statement for refined interiors or curated collections.
