About the Item

This combination of fossil urchins is quite uncommon. The lone one on the top is named Spatangus Ovatus, and the other sp. is named Tripnuste. They are found in Luberon, in the south of France. They originate in the Burdigalien Era (included in Miocene), around -20 millions years. The massive gold leafed wooden stand adds a luxury touch to the piece.
