Original - Outekkouka Shita Ammonite (Pyritized Ammonite) - Blue (Gill Gill Global)Gill Gill Global

Gill Gill Global presents the Outekkouka Shita Ammonite (Pyritized Ammonite) figure in a Blue version, standing approximately 250mm tall. Ammonoids were extinct marine cephalopods that thrived for over 340 million years, from the Early Devonian period approximately 410 million years ago until their extinction during the Cretaceous-Paleogene event about 66 million years ago. With over 10,000 described species, these creatures exhibited remarkable diversity and are prized as index fossils for dating rock layers. Pyritized ammonites are a specific type of fossil where the original organic material has been replaced by pyrite, creating specimens with a metallic golden luster. Their spiral shells, which resemble coiled rams' horns, inspired the name ammonite, derived from the Egyptian god Ammon. This original figure from Gill Gill Global reimagines the prehistoric ammonite in a striking blue colorway, standing at 250mm tall and offering a creative interpretation of one of Earth's most fascinating extinct creatures.
