The dark, shiny sphalerite matrix forms the basis of this impressive piece. The matrix has a deep, almost metallic radiance and creates a perfect contrast to the fluorite cubes on it. The fluorite crystals are scattered over the entire surface and present themselves in different shades of color, which vary depending on the incidence of light. The cubes are perfectly crystallized, with clearly defined edges and impressive transparency.

Between the luminous fluorite crystals are milky white calcite crystals, which add a further visual dimension. The calcites are slightly opaque and have a soft, silky texture. These contrasting elements of calcite and fluorite create a harmonious yet dynamic interplay that captures the viewer's eye.
