The lovely unique stand measures 4″ wide x 2 3/8″ x 11 1/2″ tall and is highly polished on several surfaces. As an added feature it has rare areas of Pyrite (as shown in the last photo). A true work of nature and man.

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.
