Doh! Teeth was my first thought and I was going to guess Jaws teeth from the old James Bond movies but thought it wasnt possible. Oh well.

If not carpet then cloth of some sort.

It can be found in nature
The pic is an area of the whole object, no backdrop is visible


Quote: "mm0zct- it's a rock"
Very close, but it's a specific type of rock.
