Septarian is typically formed in nodules with calcite crystals encased in brown aragonite. It is only in the locality of Madagascar, however, that it is found in such massive form. This attractive rectangular wall panel is fashioned from a mosaic of septarian. With aluminum backing to allow for ease of transport and installation, measures 2.5 x 1.4 meters (8.2 x 4.6 ft, 1 in thick).
