# Trilobite Fossil Cast - Museum-Quality Paleontological Reproduction 6L

Trilobites are among the most successful animals ever to evolve. These ancient marine arthropods first appeared approximately 521 million years ago and survived for over 300 million years - outlasting the vast majority of animal groups that have ever existed - before disappearing in the Permian extinction event 252 million years ago. This **Trilobite fossil cast** reproduces a beautifully preserved 6 in specimen, capturing the segmented exoskeleton, the distinctive pleural lobes, and the compound eye structure that make trilobites one of the most recognizable and beloved fossils in the natural history collecting world.

## **300 Million Years of Ocean Life in Six Inches**

This ancient marine arthropod fossil replica is hand-cast in compound stone in the USA and finished with an aged patina that replicates the warm tonal character of a limestone matrix specimen. Every segment of the thorax, every detail of the cephalon, and the characteristic axial lobe that gives trilobites their three-lobed profile are faithfully rendered. At 6 in L, this is a full-size specimen of a mid-range trilobite - substantial enough to examine in detail, compact enough to display anywhere.

## **The Trilobite Fossil Cast as Study and Display Piece**

This Paleozoic ocean creature cast is ideal for natural history classrooms, geology and paleontology study collections, and private collectors building a survey of ancient marine life. It pairs naturally with the Ammonite (SK231), Crinoid (SK230), and Nautilus Ammonite in Rock (5100Z) casts to form a compelling marine fossil display spanning hundreds of millions of years of ocean history. This compound stone trilobite reproduction is durable, non-organic, and built to museum display standards. Weighs approximately 3 lbs. Made in the USA.
