The Cretaceous cephalopods hail from England and are housed in a grey matrix that provides an excellent background for the bright hues to pop out from the stone. These Psiloceras planorbis Ammonites have been expertly preserved for a unique and captivating display and are rather uncommon examples from a famed locality in fantastic condition.
