About Opal Belemnites

Belemnites were ancient marine creatures — relatives of modern squid and cuttlefish — that lived during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, approximately 135 million years ago. When they died, their hard internal rostrums were buried in sediment and, over millions of years, replaced by precious opal. The result is one of nature’s most extraordinary fossils: a genuine prehistoric creature preserved in gemstone.

These specimens are highly sought after by opal collectors, fossil enthusiasts, and jewellers alike. High-quality belemnites make exceptional pendants and statement pieces.

Notes
