description |
|
Again another marvellous Brittlestar from this world famous locality. This specimen is larger than normal size and lies in the centre of a square piece of matrix. Many painstaking hours of preparation have gone into this wonderful fossil by Andy Cowap. All the five arms are complete with lovely colouration and detail throughout. Complete Brittlestars from this location are rare due to the fragile nature of the creature's anatomy. A totally unique fossil which is approximately 190 million years old. the matix has a flat base for display options. |
