Brazilian Agate Bookends
|
|
BK703c This is a pretty set
of Teal (color enhanced) Brazilian Agate Geode bookends with a very unique
design and color scheme. This set measures 8" x 5 1/8" x 3 1/2" with
a polished front face and inner surface.
This bookend set does have a couple
chips along the cut and polished edges. Our price reflects these minor flaws.
They will go fast so grab your set while you can. Agates mostly
occur as nodules in volcanic rocks or waters containing silica in solution
possibly derived from the decomposition of silicates in the lava.
The siliceous matter is deposited in regular layers resulting in the banded
or striped formation.
This set weighs 6 lbs. 10 oz.

Geisonoceras Bookends

BK706c
Here is a very nice average quality set
of spotted Black Geisonoceras bookends. This set measures 8 1/4" x 6 1/4"
x 2 1/8" and has a nice polish on the front, middle, top and side faces.
The bookends have been cut, carved and polished from Fossil Rock material to
expose the very unique fossils and have an unique dotted pattern on the front
face. This bookend set does have
a couple chips along the cut and polished edges. Our price reflects these minor
flaws. This material is from Morocco. The bookends make great decorator
pieces as well as super collectibles for the fossil hunter. Orthoceras
is a genus of extinct Nautiloid Cephalopod. These fossils are common and
have a global distribution which occur in any marine rock, especially Limestone.
These are slender, elongated shells with the middle of the body chamber transversely
constricted and a sub-central orthochoanitic siphuncle. The surface is
ornamented by a network of fine lirae or fine lines/ridges.
They weigh 7 lbs. 15 oz.
