About the Item
This unique fossil piece of scallops (also called Saint Jacques shells, or scientifically : gigantopecten restitutensis) is from around 20 millions years ago. It was found in the south of france in Lacoste, Luberon, and prepared in our workshop in Marseille.
On wooden stand, and can be removed easily from it. We put felt under the piece so it won't scratch the stand or any place you would put it on.
The matrix is in limestone, and the shells in a mix of silica and limestone.
