More Information

Steinhardt, Germany is known for fossilized plant material in sandstone concretions. It is becoming more difficult to find three dimensional pine cone fossils, as much of the area has been picked over and is depleted. The rich reddish brown color is all natural and a characteristic of fossils from this area.
