Item Description

A very showy and pretty pair of sliced and polished, hollow, agatized coral fossil! The snow-white exterior is a striking accent to the geode halves lined with sparkly amber shades of chalcedony - considered very rare and of highest quality replacement for this material. This is one of those unusual cases where biology meets mineralogy. This excellent specimen is from the Hauck Collection. it is one of the best, that you will see of this type.
