Mollusc Fossil with iridescent Marcasite (New Find!)

Item Description

These pieces comes to us from a brand new find in 2024 in Indonesia. These are interesting fossil/mineral combo specimens which feature a very well-preserved bivalve mollusc that hosts sparkling iridescent Marcasite inside. The two halves of the bivalve fit together perfectly, and when opened, reveal the pretty Marcasite crystals within. The pieces measure 3.3 x 2.7 x 1.3 cm & 3.2 x 2.6 x 1.3 cm respectively. We were able to get a handful of these sets from our good friend in Java, and will be listing them in the auctions going forward.
