How do you display tiny dinosaur/reptile teeth?

[JorisVV]

I was wondering how you display your small dinosaur teeth? I was conserding Gem Jar cases. 

I just got a small dutch mosasaur tooth and some perfecr abelisaurid sp. crowns & and as I continue my fossil teeth expension. I'd like to give them the display they deserve. 

 

How do you guys and girls do it? Please show some pictures and tips! Would be greatfull!

I use multiple items for my teeth depending on size and quantity. 

 

For small to mid-size teeth I like small rikers and for tiny teeth perfer gem jar cases.  The latter comes in different size jars and even different sizes in the same case.  I like the larger jar since it enables me to include a label.

The tiny teeth are not lost in these jars.

All are displayed on acrylic easels. 

 

Here are just two examples of each.  Quick phone photo.

The gem jars and holder they are in is great, look smart. I have a Hell Creek collection in bell jar . It works great as different size fossil can displayed and really showcases my tiny collection. They are  dust free and safe any damp or humid conditions . Obviously it only good for showing a small amount . Cheers Bobby

The only downside of this is, that you have to look at it looking downwards. At the riker cases you can place them on a shelve and look at it from a distance. Or a special made stand looks best in my opinion ,but it limits you to a certain size, my smallest one is about 3cm , I can make a picture if you want.

Like I mentioned, I place the gem jar frames on acrylic easels which provide an almost upright view.  Some are placed on tables and the downward view is best.

I must have missed it were you mentioned it, or missunderstood . 

 

I guess it also comes down to your own personal display possibilities in the house, I had a room made for my fossils but I still prefer to look at them straight view .

Some are just laying on shelves but I notice i tend to pick those up more frequently to have a look at them

Saw this idea on online auction site, in my opinion a good option:

I've tried those and really like the look. But I've had mixed results. In some the clear film gets foggy... Even from the same box some will fog and some stay clear. so I mainly do the gem jars for really small stuff.
