Polished "Gem" Dinosaur Bone
Jurassic
Morrison Formation
Utah, USA
3.44 x 2.83 x 3.20 inches (8.74 x 7.20 x 8.14 cm)

This rustic piece of "Gem" Dinosaur Bone even looks old with a naturally antique nature to its wood-like form. The section of long bone has been cut and polished on a window face to showcase the trabecular structure of the once-organic material. The unmistakable color and pattern of fossil 'dino' bone is easily visible over the smooth, primary surface representing the once hollow marrow core of the sizable bone segment. This piece is what classic Jurassic bone from the Morrison Formation should be. The specimen weighs just under 2 pounds and rests nicely without need of any kind of a stand.
