About it
An ammonite, cut in half and polished, scanned and drawn with splats. Ammonites were sea animals with coiled shells divided into chambers, relatives of today's nautilus and squid; they died out with the dinosaurs. In this one the empty chambers filled with quartz and chalcedony over millions of years.
Tap it and it turns over to show its other face, then back.
