About the Item
This richly textured fossil mural showcases a dynamic assemblage of prehistoric life from the Early Eocene. A large Diplomystus dentatus swims in formation with a Priscacara serrata, two Cockerellites liops, and three Knightia eocaena. Each specimen is exquisitely preserved, revealing fine anatomical detail in dramatic contrast to the natural limestone matrix.
Quarried from our private site in southwestern Wyoming, the stone features elegant variations of beige and ochre tones that highlight the dark, richly colored fossils. The result is a commanding and visually captivating composition. It is an enduring window into life 50 million years ago.
The mural is finished with a handmade Wenge wood frame and is backed in wood with a built-in French cleat. This mural ships in a custom wood crate, fully insured against loss or damage. It arrives ready for immediate installation.

ABOUT OUR WORK
Immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of natural history with our exquisite collection of luxury fossil art. Showcasing breathtaking natural specimens from the legendary Green River Formation in Wyoming, each piece crafted by Green River Fossil Company is a masterpiece meticulously prepared to merge the worlds of natural history and refined artistry. Green River Fossil Company is a world leader in fossil preparation and presentation, specializing in the unique fossil treasures available from the Green River Formation of Wyoming, USA.
Fifty million years ago, in southwestern Wyoming, a tropical freshwater lake teemed with life. Turtles, fish, crocodiles, and lush vegetation were all once well-established inhabitants of the region. Today, the lake has transformed into an incredibly rich cache of fossils where the past is forever preserved in layers of natural, sculptural limestone. This is famously known as the Green River Formation.
Professional fossil hunters scout out and excavate fossils from Green River Fossil Company's private quarry; the fossils are then brought to the GRFC lab in northern Utah. Leading experts in fossil preparation perform the painstaking task of revealing the finely preserved details of every specimen. All work adheres to the strict standards of the American Association of Applied Paleontological Science, as is attested to in each work of art's unique Certificate of Authenticity.
Green River Fossil Company has supplied exquisite examples of natural art and outstanding specimens to world-class museums, universities, collectors, interior designers, and art lovers. The collection of natural history presented here highlights important one-of-a-kind specimens as well as attainable works of natural art.
In addition to the collection of unique, sculptural art presented on 1stDibs, Green River Fossil Company custom crafts incredible and unique fossil projects.

Green River Fossil Company
The Green River Fossil Company provides a unique decor option that would be difficult for any other firm to offer — 50-million-year-old fossils from the early Eocene Period. The company extracts all their fossils from the compacted sediment where there was once a freshwater lake located in Wyoming. With the fossils they acquire, the company produces one-of-a-kind, museum-quality murals, interior design projects and free-standing fossil stone products, each unlike any other.
Green River Fossil affords clients the opportunity to possess the remnants of an era that predates humankind by millions of years. Murals comprising the fossils of extinct turtles, fish — even palm fronds — offer a connection to a time when the Earth was almost an entirely different world altogether.
Many private collections and museums display murals produced by Green River, including the Houston Museum of Natural Science in Houston, Texas.
Founded in 2000, Green River Fossil owns a private quarry in Wyoming and has established its preparatory labs in Logan, Utah. All fossils are collected and prepared according to a strict code of ethics put forth by the American Association of Paleontological Suppliers, as well as all state and federal laws.
