A stunning example of an iridescent ammonite fossil of the species Caloceras johnstoni from North Somerset, UK.
The matrix measures 143 mm (5.65 inches) tall and contains an ammonite that measures 52 mm (2.1 inches) across. The shell sits in the original limestone matrix in which it was found that has been shaped and has a cut-flat base to allow it to stand freely by itself for display.
The ammonite is very well preserved and has been prepared out of the rock to reveal the shell. The shell displays some beautiful multi-coloured iridescence with different colours that appear as the viewing angle changes. The green and blue on this one is especially striking and these are rare colours in these fossils. There is also an unusual oyster/bivalve shellfish on the ammonite that encrusted it in life before fossilisation. This shows a real snapshot of life in the Early Jurassic.
These fossils are highly sought after and very hard to find, especially complete like this. They are preserved in the same way as the famous Canadian "Ammolite" ammonites that are turned into valuable gemstones. The fossil weighs 485 grams.
Around 200 million years old (Hettangian, Early Jurassic), this fossil would make a wonderful addition to any collection.
