Lifestyle

In our other pages we have already seen that some of our fossils make beautiful works of art. Our lifestyle fossils take this a step further.

It is very important to preserve the historic value and natural beauty of fossils. We use this to take stone containing fossils to work into special pieces for the home. This is no ordinary stoneware.

These fine plates are cut from 380 million year old stone. They have fossils of Goniatites (Circled shells that would have once had tentacles to swim with) and sometimes Orthoceros (similar with a long straight shell) from the Devonian period. The stone is from the Atlas Mountains and is cut into plates 30cm (12") across. A truly unique gift.

These bowls have similar Goniatites found in a grey stone. One particularly good fossil is left raised to the rim of the bowl. These are about 18cm to 19cm (7" to 7.5") across and 4cm to 5cm (over 1.5") deep.

These wonderful slabs of cut rock make table tops or anything else you find suitable.

The black ones are dramatic with many orthoceros in them dating from about 380 million years ago. The brown ones have both orthoceros and goniatites.

Shown here are two slabs of 2 feet by 3 feet.

Agate is related to quartz. Here we see slices of coloured agate mounted as clocks with polished wooden stands. Each is about 12 cm wide and stands about 12 cm high.

Time has kept these goniatites, now they can keep time for you.
Each fossil clock is individually made so no two are alike.
