Silver Fossilised Drop Earrings
Silver earrings made out of a 110 million year old cut and polished fossilised ammonite shell. These are quarried in the Mahajanga Province of Madagascar and were around at the time when dinosaurs ruled the earth. The polishing allows the stunning inner chambers to be seen which have been replaced by agate over millions of years. These were predatory mollusks whose shells resemble that of a nautilus. The last lineages disappeared 65 million years ago at the end of the Cretaceous period.
