Experience the magic of prehistoric times with our authentic Crinoid Star Stem from Tidmoor Point, Dorset. Crinoids are an ancient fossil group that first appeared in the seas of the Middle Cambrian, about 300 million years before the time of the dinosaurs. The name 'Crinoid' comes from the Greek word krinon, meaning 'a lily', and eidos, meaning 'form'.

These fascinating creatures lived in both shallow water and in depths as great as 9,000 meters (30,000 ft). The Crinoids that were attached to the sea bottom by a stalk in their adult form are commonly called sea lilies, and they are prized by collectors and enthusiasts for their unique beauty and intriguing history.
