<B>MORTALITY FOSSIL MARBLE TABLETOP</B></I><BR> <I>Orthoceras sp. and others<BR>Devonian<BR>Sahara Desert, near Talmud, Morocco</B></I><BR>Unlike the usual monochrome shades of orthoceras plates from the Sahara desert, this beautiful tabletop displays a rich variety of coloration, with lighter earth-tones and grays broken up by "splatters" of a rich and deep red-brown, and covered throughout with the remains of innumerable orthoceras cones and ammonites. It is highly unusual to find so many individual animals preserved on a plaque of this size - 39½ x 23½ inches - and the almost chaotic distribution of the fossil remains amidst the patterns and colors of the natural rock raise this highly polished tabletop to a sublime level of natural abstract art.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Requires 3rd Party Shipping (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
