Orthoceras Fossil Keychain

📍 Only available for shipment in Tunisia

The Story

This keychain features a genuine Orthoceras, an extinct "straight-shelled" cephalopod that lived approximately 400 million years ago. A relative of the modern squid, the Orthoceras utilized its chambered shell to navigate the ancient Devonian seas. Recovered from the Atlas Mountain Range in Morocco, these specimens have been meticulously polished to highlight the fossilized internal structure of the shell. Integrating this ancient relic into a functional keychain allows you to carry a tangible piece of Earth’s geological history with you—a small but profound sign of the intricate biological designs that have existed across the eras.
