Promicroceras planicosta (Sowerby) on conifer wood, Pagiophyllum sp.
This is a unique work of art by one of the finest fossil preparators in the World, Andy Cowap. Here Andy has removed all of the matrix from the piece of wood and left a single perfect creamy calcite Ammonite perched on a tiny sculptured pedestal. This requires hours and hours of concentrated pen work to archive this unique piece. Exceptional and a 'one off'.
Jurassic, Upper Sinemurian, Obtusum Zone.
