A slightly extravagant piece, a cabochon cut from Madagascar ammonite. It has a special and effective drawing, similar to oak leaves, which is formed by the partitions in the shell. Ammonites are often hollow from the inside - and you can see the crystal-covered chambers from below. Hand sanded, sanded here.

An extra piece for an extra piece of jewelry, just watch out for acids when tinning.

ammonite, like other fossils, connects us with the earth and its past, teaches us that everything has its time to be and time to leave. So it is also a stone of its kind for the efficient use of our time here :-)
