Sea Reptile Skeleton

SKU: GD-E0004W Category:

Frozen in time, this mesmerizing, dominating sea reptile skeleton of Ichthyosaurus is perfectly displayed by Mother Nature in its distinctive grey shale matrix, beautifully mounted on a custom black frame. The “fish lizard” ruled the oceans at the time of the dinosaurs. Resembling the modern dolphin, Ichthyosaurs were known for their giant eyes, snouts, and fins. This specimen’s superior preparation clearly articulates its orbital bones, vertebra, ribs and delicate fin bones. This remarkable species journey through evolution captivates the imagination and inspires generations to come. A piece suitable for the most avid collector, refined for the most sophisticated décor.
