About the Item

Fossil agate coral adorned with iridescent fossil ammonites. The grey piece of fossil agate coral is cut and polished and adorned with the iridescent ammonites that perfectly coordinate with the mineral. This particular piece of agate coral is exceptional large and could be museum-quality. Fossil agate coral is Florida's state stone and is known for its unique formation that can take place over 20 million years. It's a natural gemstone that is created when prehistoric coral is gradually replaced with agate. The fossil agate coral and fossil ammonites are put together in a sculptural organic form - creating a piece that appears to have evolved together over time. Interpreting the past to create a piece entirely original, evolving in its own right.
