Description

Very well preserved piece of cream and brown colour that has been completely replaced by silica. It was found in the early 1980’s by Roger Gnat at the Käskorb quarry, that exploited a sand dune of Upper Cretaceous (Santonian age). One end was cut and polished to enhance the internal structure and the other end is a natural break.

Ex Roger Gnat collection.
