An Orthocera is an ancient marine mollusk that had large eyes and a well developed head.  It lived over 450 million years ago in the late Triassic period.  The surface of this fossil is polished and smooth - there is a lot of great detail. 

It's shell was long and straight and somewhat curved.  Some feel that these creatures may have been similar to our modern day squid.   Like modern cephalopods, they would have used jet propulsion to move in the water. Most likely they would not have been very agile with their long bulky shells. 

This particular fossil is quite large and measures 2 1/2 inches long.  It will arrive to you on a 20 inch black leather cord (or another length - just ask when ordering) with an easy to use clasp.

Ammonites are an extinct marine animal that are between 208 and 418 million years old. This particular Ammonite was found in Erfoud, Morocco.

Their shells have a beautiful spiral pattern that resembles a set of ram’s horns. Plinius the Elder from Pompeii (in 79AD) called this fossil the "horns of Ammon" because of the Egyptian God Ammon (Amun). This was due to the fact that Amun was depicted wearing rams horns.

Because this fossil is construction in sections it is said to be an excellent good luck charm for those who are artistic at heart or architects. Ammonites are protective and help offer stability in one’s life when structure is required. It helps to propel you out of "survival mode" and into the realms of success.

A Brachiopod (or Brachiopoda)  is a small invertebrate marine animal that has been around since the Cambrian Period (570 million years ago).

When you look at this fossil, you can see that both sides are the same.  That is what helps to identify this particular animal.  The bottom of the Brachiopod has a small groove where it was originally attached to the ocean floor by means of a fleshy "stalk" or pedicle.   The internal anatomy of brachiopod is different from a clam. Brachiopods have a coiled feeding organ called a lophophore and usually stayed in one place during its adult lifetime.

A stalactite is a type of mineral that grows downward from the ceiling or wall in limestone caves. It is sometimes referred to as dripstone.  They grow at a rate of 1 millimeter per year.  These stones are formed when a single mineral laden drop of water begins to drip into the cave. As each drop falls it leaves behind a ring of calcite.  With each new drop this ring begins to grow and grow.  They can be be icicle-shaped, straw-shaped, curtain-shaped, or formed as terraces.
