Unusual distorted Asteroceras obtusum display ammonite fossil (75 mm)A stunning example of a calcite ammonite fossil of the species Asteroceras obtusum from the world famous Jurassic Coast beach of Lyme Regis, Dorset UK.

A stunning example of a calcite ammonite fossil of the species Asteroceras obtusum from the world-famous Jurassic Coast beach of Lyme Regis, Dorset UK.

The piece of limestone matrix measures 150 mm (5.9 inches) across and the fossil ammonite measures 75 mm (2.92 inches) across. The ammonite is very well preserved and has been prepared out of the rock to reveal the whole shell including the distinctive ribbed keel.

The ribs are very finely defined, and the colour is beautiful and very unusual for these fossils: a mottled mix of brown and grey - these are very unusual colours for this species. Part of the edge of the shell is open, showing the beautiful internal calcite crystal that have grown inside the shell.

This one is very unusual as it has a geological fault line running through the shell. this formed during the fossilisation process as the rock was pulled apart by tectonic forces. This created a gap that calcite crystals grew inside creating a vein. This adds an interesting geological story to the fossil. 

A great example of a popular species and impressive in the flesh. The fossil weighs 1465 grams and a cut flat base to allow it to stand freely on its own for display. Fossils like this make great display pieces and add a real focal interest to any shelf, not to mention being a great conversation piece!

Around 196 million years old (Sinemurian, Early Jurassic), this fossil would make a wonderful addition to any collection.

Perfect for a backpack or a purse
Color: Upgrade-black, Size: 14 Inch, Color: Upgrade-black, Size: 14 Inch
I love this black backpack. It has gold zippers and brown accents and it has a pocket in the front two on the side three inside and a pocket on the back of the laptop pocket. I have a disability and have to carry extra stuff so this is a perfect size for me to wear in my back every day. It’s black nylon so it should stay clean. I tend to drop things. I think this will be great, but even without a disability, this is a great backpack. It’s so cute.

Perfect day bag!
Color: Upgrade-black, Size: 15.6 Inch
Super convenient and lightweight. I used it for two back-to-back conferences last week and it was PERFECT for what I needed to tote along all day. Fits my regular sized computer (15-16 inch) and even held my water bottle (which is larger than a regular plastic water bottle).

Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch, Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch
Perfect for work! I use it for laptop, charger and few items necessary at work. I have a few blocks to walk from parking to work location and this bag has replaced last backpack and purse. Much easier to carry one item than two or more. Plus, it has enough room if you need to use it for clothes and toiletries (road-trip) or carry-on.
