Macro Fossiles Kasbah

Reviewed By Marf13669 - Ogdensburg, United States

We walked into this kasbah thinking that it's just another tourist souvenir shop. How wrong we were. One of the salesmen treated our tour of the facility like a museum docent lecturing us on the geography, geology and history of this area of the Moroccan desert. We were shown examples of the fossils in the raw as extracted from the earth and then examples of how they are drawn out by artisans using chisels, drills, sanding other methods of turning this rough stone elements into beautiful tables, wall hangings and free-standing marble-like pieces. The stone contains ammonites (the shells are in concentric spiraling rings like a winding stair), trilobites (the earliest form of arthopods), orthoceras (octopus and squids) and crinoides that are over 520 million years old. We fell victim to the sales pitch and made a purchase that was packed, shipped insured and arrived in perfect condition. The piece now sits in our home and immediately attracts attention from visitors as it's something that is not normally seen unless one visits a museum featuring items from geologic digs. The kasbah is educational and thoroughly absorbing. We recommend a visit even if you don't make a purchase.

Fossiles d'Erfoud

Reviewed By MDalnap - Oconomowoc, United States

Great place to see what is done with the exhumed fossils. They show you the process of getting to the fossils and the end products for their effort. We found the gift shop to be a great experience and purchased an amazing cocktail table to be shipped back to the USA. I will revise my review once I have possession of the table to let you know how it looks.
