Discover a stunning and genuine fossilized fern plant from the famous Coal Measures of the Upper Carboniferous period. This specimen originates from Radstock, Somerset, a renowned location for exceptionally preserved Carboniferous fossils. A true collector’s piece, this fossil provides a glimpse into an ancient world over 300 million years old, when vast, swampy forests covered what is now the United Kingdom.

During the Carboniferous period, the land was dominated by towering Lycophyte trees, seed ferns (Pteridosperms), and Calamites, an ancient relative of modern horsetails. These dense forests laid the foundation for today’s coal deposits. The humid environment also supported an incredible variety of invertebrates, including giant millipedes (Arthropleura) and dragonflies with two-foot wingspans.

This fossilized fern plant specimen is 100% genuine and has been carefully preserved, displaying intricate frond details. It has been carefully hand-selected and photographed to ensure accuracy in representation.
