Description
Sleek, dramatic, and unmistakably ancient, these Polished Orthoceras Fossils feature the long, straight shells of prehistoric marine cephalopods beautifully contrasted against a deep black stone matrix. Polishing reveals the fossil’s distinctive internal chambers and creates a smooth, glossy finish.
Orthoceras lived in ancient seas hundreds of millions of years ago and were relatives of modern squid, octopus, and nautilus. Their striking linear form makes them popular for fossil collections, crystal shops, gift stores, educational displays, and home décor.
Orthoceras fossils are traditionally associated with grounding, stability, confidence, and connection to the past.
