Pyrolusite Dendritic Limestone
The famous Solnhofen limestone fossils offer an extraordinary window into the Jurassic period, preserving both marine and terrestrial life from 150 million years ago. This exceptional collection features articulated skeletons, delicate jellyfish, crustaceans, squids, fish, and even flying reptiles, making it a treasure trove for paleontology enthusiasts. The star of the collection is Archaeopteryx, the iconic “missing link” showcasing feathered wings alongside dinosaur bones, highlighting the evolutionary connection between reptiles and birds.

Perfect for collectors, researchers, and fossil lovers, Solnhofen fossils are nature’s remarkable time capsule of prehistoric life.
