Septaria ball with a lid, on brass base
PUMI2470
This complete septaria from Madagascar is mounted on a brass base, to admire its inner crystallization. Formed at the prehistoric time, around a plant or animal fragments, this nodule of clay dryed with time. The opened space in the middle have been filled with black calcite. And the best part is that when we found the round pebble, we managed to polish the outside and understand the way to open it, following the cracks, in a way you can't see it. so when you pull the brass finial, you just open the lid of a beautifull curiuosity. Only one of a kind.
