    Fish fossil

    Hey all A number of years ago I bought this fish fossil and I've never done any digging to find out more about it - until now. This was my 2nd or 3rd fossil I ever bought, it came from a small rock/crystal shop that sells a small selection of fossils. It only had one detail on it when I bought it and that was (if memory serves) it's from the Devonian Period Yep, it's painted... like a lot are. My very inexperienced eye at the time didn't notice that until after I got it home and had a close look at it. The amount of detail is incredible, unfortunately the camera doesn't do it justice. Can anyone offer more information on this fish with the very limited info I gave? Genus? Likely find location? Cheers Gareth
  3. Hi, These crinoids from Morocco look very nice with the good contrast of the red matrix. My question is if the seller has enhanced the red colour of the red matrix with paint or is his red colour the real and natural colour? I hope that anyone with experience can advice me in this. Thank you.
  4. Hey all, I have a Green River fish I purchased many years ago. The bones mostly seem well preserved, but the fins at least (and likely all of it) was painted a dark brown and then some sort of a sealant was applied. The matrix is different from the usual split fish material, it is more like a hard sandstone (much more sturdy than the split fish layer) and it is a brownish color. Likely the fish was painted to "improve" contrast with the dark matrix. I would like to remove the paint and restore the fish to its natural condition. I have soaked it in acetone for hours (in a fume hood of course) and that removed the sealant but the paint is almost untouched. Does anyone know what kind of paint commercial dealers use (or used to use 30 years ago) and how to remove it? Don
  5. Hi everyone, are parts of this Knightia painted? Bought from a pretty reputable dealer, not a dubious random online seller.
  6. Hello all. I am looking into getting a nice decorative crinoid fossil without breaking my budget. I was considering getting one of the Moroccan ones that are commonly painted for contrast, then washing the paint off. I know these aren't very often completely faked, but are often composited. I have a couple that I am looking at and just wanted to check if they are genuine, and how much (if any) is composite. I would also like to know if you all think they will turn out nice once the paint is removed. I included pictures of two, labeled fossil A and fossil B. Sorry for the blurry photos, it's all the seller provided. Let me know what you think. Thank you!!

    What is this?

    I have a 1/4" slab of ? I have no clue what it is. It looks like jasper or agate? It is solid considering how thin it is.
