A Smaller Fossil Ammonite Pendant

An ancient relative of the chambered nautilus, ammonites became extinct along with the dinosaur around 65 million years ago. This species was very prolific with some shells being over 4 feet in diameter. In medieval Europe, fossilised ammonites were thought to be petrified coiled snakes, and were called "snakestones".

Our example measures about 1" tall x .75" wide and is set in a handcrafted sterling silver frame. Your pendant will arrive on your choice of necklace along with a descriptive card about your 65 million year old treasure.
