Pyrolusite Dendritic Limestone

Unearth the beauty of Solnhofen limestone fossils, a rich source of Jurassic-era marine and terrestrial life dating back 150 million years. This remarkable collection showcases articulated skeletons, delicate jellyfish, crustaceans, squids, fish, and rare flying reptiles. The highlight is the legendary Archaeopteryx, the famous “missing link” with feathered wings and dinosaur bones, revealing the evolutionary bridge between reptiles and birds. Many fossils are naturally exposed as the limestone splits, while carefully restored pieces retain their prehistoric charm. Ideal for collectors, educators, and paleontology enthusiasts, Solnhofen fossils offer a fascinating glimpse into the wonders of the Jurassic period.
