Orthoceras Fossil, Natural Partly Polished Specimen, Devonian Period, c. 400 million years old

Orthoceras Fossil, Devonian period, c. 400 million years old

A striking piece of natural history, this hand-cut limestone slab features three beautifully preserved Orthoceras fossils, each partially polished to reveal the fine chambered structure of these ancient sea creatures. Set against the raw, textured matrix, the high-gloss fossils seem to shimmer with movement, like a glimpse into a time long ago. 

Orthoceras (meaning “straight horn”) were early ancestors of the modern squid, drifting through prehistoric oceans over 400 million years ago. This fossil captures both their delicate forms and the enduring stillness of stone, a quiet, grounding presence for your home.

Style it on a bookshelf, sideboard, or desk among other natural objects and timeworn textures. A tactile, thoughtful gift for nature lovers, collectors, or the simply curious.
