antiqued brass casts of a genuine Ammonite fossil negative
sterling silver posts with pads and backs (a small area of brass will be in contact with the skin and may cause skin to temporarily turn green)
3/8" tall
easy, everyday earrings!
This cast was taken from a genuine fossilized Pleuroceras Ammonite negative from Germany and dates to the Lower Jurassic, about 185 million years ago!
Negative fossils are trace fossils, the one used for these earrings was made when an ammonite shell was pressed into sediment, leaving an impression. That sediment eventually fossilized. I made mold of that fossil in wax, then hand carved it into this small tear drop shape.
