A prehistoric reptile from the Early Permian period, the dimetrodon was a carnivorous animal with magnificent spinal sails on its body. Dimetrodon was thought to have lived before dinosaurs even roamed Mother Earth. Brandon Phillips' adorable dimetrodon has cross-hatched scaling, an adorable carved sail and tiny eyes from turquoise inlays. About 2 7/8" long, 3/4" wide and 1 1/2" tall, from rich Picasso marble.
