Colors range from subtle earth tones to vibrant blues, greens and reds. A face of each specimen is shaped and polished to produce an attractive combination of natural and polished bone. Specimens are evaluated based on size, structural detail, and color definition. No two pieces of bone are identical. I have found many that are similar, but for the most part, the size, structure, and color make each piece unique and individual.
Specimens are excellent collectibles and make handsome additions to any desk.
Holding and contemplating a specimen allows you to transcend Time itself. The Agatized Dinosaur Bone offered here has been collected from the Morrison Formation on the Colorado Plateau. This identifies it as Jurassic Age material, dating from 136,000,000 to 145,000,000 years old. Individual pieces are either carved from solid blocks or blocks created by the lamination of several smaller pieces. All art forms are hand shaped, meaning specialized equipment used for producing spheres and eggs is not used.
