An impressive matched pair of polished black ammonite fossil halves originating from Madagascar and dating to the Cretaceous Period, approximately 100 million years ago.

Expertly cut and polished to reveal the intricate internal chamber structure, these striking specimens display contrasting dark mineralisation alongside sparkling crystalline pockets formed over millions of years.

The beautifully preserved spiral chambers showcase the remarkable geometry that has made ammonites one of the world’s most sought-after fossil collectibles.

Ammonites were marine cephalopods that inhabited the ancient oceans during the Mesozoic Era before becoming extinct alongside the dinosaurs.

Today, polished pairs such as these are prized for their combination of natural history, geological significance, and decorative appeal.

Presented as a matching pair and supplied with display stands, these fossils make an exceptional addition to a cabinet of curiosities, fossil collection, or contemporary interior.
