Orthoceras Tumbled Stone Pendant – with Fabric Cord
A fascinating Orthoceras pendant, impressive with its natural, fossil structure and striking shape.
Orthoceras are fossilized squid-like marine creatures from the Devonian period, which lived approximately 400 million years ago.
The polished stone clearly shows elongated fossil structures in shades of grey, black, and white – each piece is a unique testament to Earth's history.
With a size of approximately 47 × 16 mm, the pendant is comfortable to wear and an extraordinary eye-catcher.
The hole of approximately 2.5 mm is ideal for leather cords, omega necklaces, or delicate silver chains.
The included black fabric cord (approx. 80 cm) is soft, supple, and provides high wearing comfort.
You will receive the Orthoceras pendant shown – a hand-polished piece of jewelry with a fascinating fossil pattern.
