Bed.
An ammonite spiral sits inside a broken shelf of stone. Putty, chalk and blue-grey emerge where the slab splits into leaves.

Collection notes
A specimen drawer in afternoon light.
The spiral is easiest to see where a rib casts a sideways shadow. Across the flatter stone that same grey turns cool and blue. A worn timber drawer lends the specimen its one warm edge.
For a geology exhibit, use Field Graphite type on Fossil Chalk. Mark the shell’s outline in Tidal Shale and pick out its chambers in Drawer Oak.
