Own a genuine piece of Earth's earliest history with this beautiful handmade sterling silver trilobite necklace.
At the heart of this striking pendant is a complete fossil Trilobite (Elrathia kingii), carefully set in sterling silver to create a timeless piece of jewellery that is as fascinating as it is beautiful.
Each trilobite measures approximately 2.5cm from top to bottom (every fossil is naturally unique) and is supplied on an 18-inch sterling silver chain, ready to wear or give as an unforgettable gift.
The Elrathia kingii trilobite lived in the ancient oceans around 500–510 million years ago, during the Cambrian Period, one of the earliest chapters in the history of complex life on Earth. Trilobites were among the first successful animals to evolve and flourished in Earth's seas for over 270 million years, making them one of the most successful groups of prehistoric creatures ever to exist.
Because every fossil formed naturally over hundreds of millions of years, each trilobite has its own unique character, preserving incredible detail from an ancient world that disappeared long before the dinosaurs.
