About the Item

This exclusive Ammonite Booksends sculpture combines contemporary design with authentic fossil shells that date back to milions of years ago. It is truly unique because the natural form and the decorative colors of each Ammonite fossil shell are never the same. Bases are L-shaped and made of solid slate with satin finish.
