Enrolled Trilobite Phacops

An interesting fossilised enrolled Trilobite Phacops. These specimens are usually mostly complete, which is quite rare for pieces 'off matrix'.

These pieces are sold in a few different sizes. Because these pieces are rolled up, it is quite hard to measure them so the sizes may vary! They are natural fossils, too, so it can be quite hard to guarantee the grades/quality of the fossils too.

They rolled up into a protective ball as a defense mechanism, shown by these specimens.

Our current stock is all from the Devonian of Morocco.

The pictures you see here are representative of the products and are usually not the exact item you will receive. Where various grades are available we do try to photograph each grade - but some photographs are still on their way!
