SUPERB GERMAN SEA LILY Seirocrinus subangular

Item Details

Description

SUPERB GERMAN SEA LILY
Seirocrinus subangularis
Lower Jurassic
Posidonienschiefer Formation, Holzmaden, Germany
The crinoid, known also as the sea lily or feather star, is one of the world's so-called "living fossils". They belong to the phylum Echinodermata, with their own class, Crinoidea, and count amongst their distant relatives the starfish, brittle star and sea urchin. They are filter feeders, grabbing microscopic particles on which to feed as great forests of them sway back and forth on the ocean floor. Their fossils are found all over the world, but the most beautiful and desirable are those from the Posidonia shale beds of Holzmaden in southern Germany. The strong dark color of the shale matrix serves as a beautiful background to the delicate serpentine neck of the fossil, highlighted by the subtle shimmer of pyritization. The matrix itself has been prepared and polished, to better the contrast with the superb three-dimensional detail of the fossil itself which stands out in high relief. Adding yet further interest to the piece, the crinoid remains attached to a piece of driftwood - some species did not root themselves to the ocean floor, but floated through the waters attached to drifting floral debris - and gathered around its anchor are the remains of other members of the colony. This is a superbly prepared and of museum quality specimen with an irregularly-shaped matrix that measures approximately 60 x 38 inches. The crinoid itself is uncommonly large measuring 66 ½ inches in length along its curvaceous stem.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids.

Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions.
