With Father's Day just around the corner, we have some manly gift ideas:
A specially mounted springbok skull, ready to grace his space. Only one, so act fast if you like it. If you need something bigger, we've just listed some large African antelope skulls.
American Artifacts - these collections of minor finds, mainly metal, from the southern and western U.S., are interesting peeks into the lives of pioneers and cowboys circa 1870-1920. Choose from themes like the Civil War, the Cowboy Era, Ghost Towns...also we found these bullet poker chips - soldiers and cowboys used to flatten bullets to use as poker chips.

Fossil Dentition! Fresh from Siberia, these fossil woolly rhino teeth are like natural sculptures. Also, not a dinosaur, but a swimming reptile from Cretaceous Morocco, these mosasaur teeth are impressively large and pointy. If you want to protect them and make them more gift-like, you might like to add a suspension frame. And, most impressively, we have a selection of very large Carcharodontosaurus teeth

We have a few nice quality Death's Head Moths in black plastic suspension frames. The frames allow the moth to be viewed from all angles, and can stand upright without support.

Preparing for July 4th? Or just like stars? We have these carved onyx stars from Pakistan; mostly green, with natural veins of brown and white.

Baby Woolly Mammoth Teeth. Unlike people who only get baby teeth and then adult teeth, Woolly Mammoths and modern day elephants go through six different sets of teeth in a life time. These teeth that we have available are all juvenile specimens that are not nearly as shelf busting (from the weight) as the adult ones get to be.

Ron Cauble, founder of The Bone Room, was obsessed with inclusions in amber. At Fossil and Mineral Shows he would typically be found seated at an amber dealer's booth, a great pile of amber pieces before him, peering through a loupe at the world inside each piece.
Over the years, some of the pieces were sold to collectors and scientists (most notably, to George Poinar, recognized amber expert and author) - but Ron was always a better collector than salesman, and his collection grew to museum backroom proportions.
Finally we are getting a good start on cataloging and photographing his enormous collection of amber and copal, and offering this work of love and obsession to the public. We think Ron would approve.
