Ammonite Fossil

349.00

 A Madagascar Marvel

This stunning Ammonite fossil, unearthed in Madagascar, is a testament to the ancient world of cephalopods. Ammonites, ocean-dwelling creatures with a shell, thrived over 400 million years ago, eventually becoming extinct around 65 million years ago. They share a close evolutionary link with modern-day octopuses, squids, and nautiluses.

This particular Ammonite specimen is fascinating, having swum in warm seas about 150 million years ago. The fossilization process has turned it into a mesmerizing piece, with minerals like druzy calcite, aragonite, and pyrite crystallizing within its chambers, alongside remnants of the ancient sea-bed.

Ammonites are not just geological wonders; they also carry deep spiritual significance. They ground us, helping to forge a connection with the earth and our ancestors, reminding us of the timeless nature of life on our planet.

This Ammonite is from the House of Formlab Crystal Concierge Collection and comes with its own wooden stand. The set weighs 2kg – approximate size 24 cm. We have exclusive videos of our Crystal Concierge crystals available! DM us on Instagram for a closer look.

Description

Conscious Crystal Sourcing

At House of Formlab we always try to source our crystals in an ethically minded way. We only choose high-quality pieces and work with trusted and reputable suppliers who also take ethics in the crystal supply chain very seriously.

Many of our suppliers buy directly from the mines and they undertake regular site visits during buying trips to ensure working conditions and low impact environmental protections are as claimed. None of our suppliers knowingly buy from mines with any child labour, poor or dangerous working conditions. Certain countries are known for dubious practices and we avoid sourcing from those regions.

Often crystals are not what the miners are digging for. More often than not they are byproducts found alongside more valuable elements such as are used in our mobile phones and TVs. This makes supply chains complicated but where we can we avoid minerals and crystals known to come from this type of operation.

Certificates are often hard to come by. There is still no overarching governing body that certifies crystals in the same way as diamonds are now tracked and certified – mainly due to the difference in value. The more outcry there is, the more chance is idea will gain traction. So keep asking and campaigning for ethically sourced crystals and together we can change the crystal universe.

Buying crystals is a learning process. We will make mistakes, everyone does, but rest assured we are trying our best to make the right choices and provide you with the crystal you can be proud of.

Intuitively Chosen

We use our intuition to choose a piece we feel is calling us for you – a piece that is absolutely meant to be yours. We are huge believers in the crystal chooses the owner, not the other way around.

We do our best to make sure that the listing photos and information accurately depict what we have available so you have an idea of what is coming your way, but the rest is up to the universe.

With crystal-infused love,

Madame Formtastica
