YOU Are Prehistoric!

YOU will feel sooo young when you wear this triceratops fossil necklace. This is a genuine Triceratops Horridus Tooth from Hell Creek Montana dating back to the Cretaceous era from about 70 million years ago to 65 million years ago.

Triceratops have no teeth in the front or at it's beak but has lots of cheek teeth. This is one of them.  Each tooth is different!

The fossil measures approximately 3/4" h x 5/8" w x 3/8 (20mm x 16mm x 9mm).  It is pretty difficult to find one that still has lots of detail or very few imperfections.  Unfortunately the fossil may include one or more sharp points.   The tooth has a root well that can accommodate a think sterling silver bail and can lie flatish against the skin.  YOU will receive one tooth on a long thin sterling bail, on a sterling silver chain.   You may choose a 16" or 18" sterling 1.4mm chain.  It comes in a pretty pillbox gift tin.



*********************
With this purchase, I will also include a fun Grow-Your-Own Fossil Look-A-Like. These guys resemble Trilobites-creatures that lived in the Paleozoic era about 500-250 million years ago. They come with instructions and you add water sort of like sea monkeys. Although they are not trilobites, these living fossils look a lot like them with their sheild heads, walking legs, gils, and segmented bodies. They are branchiopod crustaceans found in ephemeral pools and their eggs are really hardy and can be dried up and "hatched" after a long rain or in your case, in a large glass jar filled with water.

Day 1 just a murky mess
Day 3 tiny little white fairy shrimp and tiny crustaceans
Day 4 they look an awfully lot like sea monkeys now
Day 6 in the afternoon, you will swear they got bigger since the morning
Day 15 they have been almost doubling in size everyday and getting bigger and bigger, maybe add a nail-head sized amount of fishfood, water looks murky and they like it like that, you may add a little room temp water a little at a time
Day 30, they no longer have that transparent look, they have developed a hard-looking shell
Day ? they are big suckers and will eventually lay eggs and die. they have a life span of 30-90 days.
