This mineral diorama is designed to resemble a rustic, stone-built structure, featuring a decorative frame made of reddish-brown stones. The frame itself is arched at the top and includes a small circular opening, which makes reference to historical garden grottoes or architectural relics. Inside this intricately designed frame, a collection of colourful minerals and rocks is displayed.
