Let me fascinate you with my collection of fossil jewelrythat I’m selling.
The fossils used in my jewelryrange from the Paleozoic Era (543 to 248 million years ago - the baculites) through the Silurian Age (an estimated 400 million years old - cephalopods) and the Jurassic Period (an estimated 140 million years ago - ammonites) to the Cretaceous Period (144 to 65 million years ago - also, ammonites).
Ammonites, fossilized coral, baculites, cephalopods, and Petoskey stone fossils make beautiful and unique jewelry.

Other Details
Most pendant jewelry is made as pin-pendantsand comes with a removable bail; so, the piece may be worn as either a brooch/pin or as a pendant.
The colors of most fossils are usually:
- black
- brown
- cream
- beige
However, sometimes fossilized coral forms in bright colors, such as:
- red and pinks
- some blue and green
If preservation conditions are correct, shells become fossilized.
As light enters this shell, it’s refracted and reflected as if it passed through a prism. This is how the iridescent property is produced.
