These are very large brachiopods from an unusual location. They are Cyrtospirifer verneuilli from the Upper Devonian of Belgium. These brachiopods are totally free of matrix and can be seen from all angles. The fossils are extremely 3-dimensional and have excellent natural color. The HUGE brachiopods exhibit fine detail - the ornamentation of the winged lamp shells is easily seen. This is a very attractive pair of Spiriferid brachiopods from an exotic location.
