Product Description

This Orthoceras Fossil Mortar and Pestle is carved from fossil-rich stone containing the preserved remains of Orthoceras, an extinct marine cephalopod that inhabited ancient oceans hundreds of millions of years ago. The fossilized shell patterns create striking natural designs throughout the piece.

Orthoceras are among the oldest commonly available fossils, dating back approximately 400 million years. Their long, cone-shaped shells are easily recognizable and make each mortar and pestle a fascinating blend of natural history and craftsmanship.

Whether displayed as a decorative conversation piece, added to a fossil collection, or used as intended, this mortar and pestle offers a distinctive connection to Earth's prehistoric past. Because genuine fossils are used, each piece will vary slightly in fossil distribution, color, size, and overall appearance.
