Pyritized Ammonite Handmade Stone Pendant Wrapped in Silver

This is a piece of the broken Pyrite Ammonite. It was a large Pyrite Ammonite. This pendant is unique and rare, you will never find another one like this. This pendant is made of Russian Pyritized Ammonite and hand-wrapped in 12 gauge sterling silver wire.

These ammonites lived in the Jurassic Age 136 million years ago. Steeped in a marine sediment, their decaying bodies released sulfide that reacted to dissolved iron in the water creating iron sulfide. Replacing the carbonate shell that was leeching into the surrounding water was PYRITE, an iron sulfide. Thus this beautiful Ammonite had transformed itself into a golden body over this time. The inside of these ammonite shells dramatically reveals the demonstration of the Phi, or the Golden Mean.

In sacred geometry, the Golden Mean demonstrates a numeric harmonic which is repeated in patterns throughout nature from the spiral arrangement on leaves to the proportions of spirals on hurricanes and galaxies.
