An ancient Fossil Shark Tooth from Otodus Obliquus. These teeth are super popular and affordable. Suitable for kids as they aren’t too fragile (for a fossil) and a great way to start or boost your own collection. An amazing natural fossil from eons past. Otodus is an extinct genus of mackerel shark which lived during the Paleocene and Eocene epochs, approximately 60 to 45 million years ago. The name Otodus comes from Greek “oûs” (ear) and “odous” (tooth), or “ear-shaped tooth”. This specimen has been mounted on a perspex pad for enhanced display.

Named Odontocete, toothed whale from the Miocene Period. This whale would have shared the same waters and time period as many of the dangerous sharks found off the East Coast of North America during the Miocene, like the infamous Megalodon Shark. Odontocete teeth were bigger than the Tyrannosaurus Rex Dinosaur teeth and would have eaten other Whales and Sharks. They grew to 18 meters long and weighed 40 tonnes.
A beautiful Blue Amber Large specimen. This is a truly amazing material, indoors it has a translucent golden red hue, outdoors it looks blue to purple, so some kind of fluorescence or natural colour change is taking place here. Under long wave UV light it fluoresces electric blue. Being Amber, or fossilised tree gum, it is extremely light for its size. The ethereal look and feel of this stuff make it a compelling addition to the collection. This piece would be suitable for cutting into a magical looking gem too. Bet you can’t put it down! A great gift or treat for the collector of the unusual.
Dimensions:
