Brachiopod One of a Kind Fossil Sterling Silver Pendant
This handcrafted Brachiopod fossil pendant holds a remarkable piece of Earth's history. Long before the age of dinosaurs, brachiopods thrived in ancient seas, leaving behind beautifully preserved fossils that continue to fascinate collectors and nature lovers today. Each one is completely unique, shaped over millions of years by the natural world.
I hand-wrapped this Brachiopod fossil in heavy sterling silver. Your fossil measures 1 1/4 inches long by 3/4 inches wide. The fossil has a bit of a shine to it and the most amazing textures for your fingers to explore as you wear your necklace.
Note: To keep your pendant looking its best, avoid exposure to water, perfumes, and household chemicals. When you're not wearing it, store it in a dry place and gently polish the sterling silver with a soft jewelry cloth whenever needed. Care should be taken when storing your fossil as they can be fragile.

Bachiopod
A Brachiopod (or Brachiopoda) is a small invertebrate marine animal that has been around since the Cambrian Period (570 million years ago).
When you look at this fossil, you can see that both sides are almost the same. That is what helps to identify this particular animal.The bottom of the Brachiopod has a small groove where it was originally attached to the ocean floor by means of a fleshy "stalk" or pedicle. The internal anatomy of brachiopod is different from a clam. Brachiopods have a coiled feeding organ called a lophophore and usually stayed in one place during its adult lifetime.
