In the realm of fossils, sometimes there is only one available for the whole world to share. Other times, the real thing is too costly for the average person to own. The next best thing to holding an actual fossil in your hands, is to hold a replica that captures the textures of the original. It is also nice to have a replica to share with friends or students because they are much more replaceable than a fragile original.
Replicas available from Cindy's Ventures are all cast in DryStone for the look, feel and weight of real rock. Colors vary but coincide with the variety of colors found in actual fossils - grays, blacks, gray blues, clay reds and yellow ochres as well as off whites. .Pieces are cast in a base color and then additional color washes are added to highlight the textures intrinsic to the original fossil the mold was made from. Finish coats can be matte or shiny. Cindy's Ventures takes custom requests. Unfinished pieces to paint yourself are available for select replicas.
