About the Item
This striking Brittle Star fossil plate, dating back approximately 450 million years, preserves two beautifully defined specimens with arms radiating across the natural stone matrix. The warm brown fossils contrast elegantly against the muted gray surface, emphasizing their graceful symmetry and movement frozen in time. The level of preservation highlights delicate anatomical details, from the central discs to the slender arms, making it both a scientific treasure and an aesthetic statement.
This fossil plate has a substantial yet manageable size that allows it to display elegantly in a variety of settings. Whether admired as a natural history specimen or as a decorative accent, it offers a timeless connection to prehistoric marine life and brings a sense of depth and history to any collection or interior.
