This lovely natural specimen is another offering from The StoneCarver.
I believe that this beautiful, unique specimen is part of the superstructure (aka "process") of a very large vertebrate. The distinctive and fascinating surface configuration is something seen in other vertebrate specimens. I’ve spent endless hours marveling at the detail of this piece. The polished interior has a cream coloration with scattered red and blue agate-filled cavities.
I would consider this to be a prized piece in any collection.
The polished surface has a "saddle" shape, where the center is lower than the ends (long side) and the sides (short side) are lower than the center. The polished face is 4" x 2" maximum with a thickness of 3-1/2". Weight is 2-1/2 lb.
As with any fine bone, it should be seen in direct sunlight under magnification to appreciate the full range of beauty it offers!
The photographs show all sides of the specimen.
SURE TO VIEW THE PHOTOS AT THEIR MAXIMUM MAGNIFICATION!
Agatized dinosaur bone can only be found on the Colorado Plateau in the Brushy Basin member of the Morrison Formation. This stratum was laid down 146 to 156,000,000 years ago, corresponding to the Late Jurassic period. The dinosaurs that inhabited this region during the Late Jurassic included Allosaurus, Apatosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Camarasaurus, Diplodocus, Stegosaurus, and Torvosaurus (a theropod nearly the size of Tyrannosaurus), to name just a few!

Very beautiful and it matches the earrings I also bought from the seller. This seller is very nice and helpful and I would do business with him again. I do recommend checking out his website because it has a lot of information on his products. I'm new to gembones and it was very helpful to me and I like knowing the exact source and processes of the things I buy.

It was a gift for a dear friend. They loved it. Got to check it out and I was impressed as well. I'll be keeping an eye open for more bones that are on a college friendly budget.
