Description
This striking raw edge Orthoceras fossil bowl is a handmade, one-of-a-kind piece carved from ancient fossiliferous limestone mined in the remote Sahara Desert of Morocco. The stone is packed with beautifully preserved Orthoceras fossils, the prehistoric squid-like cephalopods that lived hundreds of millions of years ago in Earth’s ancient oceans.
Each bowl is shaped and polished by skilled Moroccan artisans who carefully expose the natural fossils while leaving the outer rim in a rugged, raw-edge finish. The result is a stunning fusion of natural history and craftsmanship—part home décor, part museum display.
Perfect as a decorative centerpiece, mineral collector’s display, or unique gift, this bowl showcases real prehistoric marine life frozen in time. No two bowls are ever identical, making your piece truly one-of-a-kind.
