Jurassic Landscape Picture Dendritic Sandstone Double Sided Solnhofen + Stand
Beautiful fern like manganese dendritic inclusions on a light sandstone. Double sided as seen in picture one. Known as a pseudo fossil, as often mistaken for a fossil plant or fern as they look so similar. However, they are actually formed by a chemical process ; the tiny fronds of manganese oxide crystals that over a very long period of time embed themselves in the sand stone matrix.
In healing circles, these specimens are thought to resonate with tiny nerves or blood vessels ( as in the medical term dendrite) thus helping circulatory or conditions of the nervous system. They are also thought o bring grounding and stability.
Supplied with an easel style acrylic folding plate display stand. Brilliant idea for a most unusual gift with an artistic slant to it!
Provenance : Solnhofen, Bavaria, Germany Size: 7.9 x 5.9 cm Condition: Very good detail. The picture may appear bigger than the actual size, as I have done my best to show you as much as detail.
