Middle Miocene (Barstovian)
Esmeralda Formation
Nye County, NV, USA
Two 8mm flowers on 38mm paper shale.  Extremely rare.
Flower, Angiosperm

Two well-preserved flowers.  Beautiful piece here.  This would make a great framed piece that is romantic in its own way.  Flowers that will never wilt or die, but remain.

The fragility of life captured naturally in stone.
