Description:

This tiny shell of a single celled plant or diatom, Triceratum, is less than a tenth of a millimetre in diameter. Sculpted from silica, the same material as glass, the overall triangle is divided into an outer boder with concentric rows of circle patterns, whilst the centre has radiating ovals. The surreal colour effects are caused by slight interference of light under the illumination conditions used.
