English walnut, with (American?) walnut base. Started out just doing the in-the-round of the shell, then I saw online that many people cut the fossils open to reveal the inside. So after I finished the outside, I cut the thing in half by hand (nerve wracking experience!) Then I did the insides. Both sides of each piece are carved, but they are mounted in a way to display one "outside" and one "inside" at the same time. I don't care too much for the base and I may make another one at some point.
