This plate features a highly unusual combination of two beautifully preserved prehistoric fossil ferns on dark grey slate background: one in a golden-brown color, the other in a silvery white. The fern genus, Neuropteris, is now extinct and is known only from fossils. The detail is exquisite - it's possible to distinguish the individual veins on the fern fronds! An excellent collectors' item as well as a beautiful decor piece.
Comes with certificate of authenticity and information card.
