A stack of pages from Nicholas Christopher's novel "A Trip to the Stars" (german) laminated page on page, hardened, carved and sanded, then mounted to a heptagonal shape.
Sanded, multisealed and smoothly polished to a soft gloss, the surface showing a subtle text pattern, it matches perfectly with the shiny pearls and the glowing gold balls, which are embedded into gold-plated pits.
Each of the seven surfaces is studded with four Akoya pearls and three 8k gold balls.
All elements are pinned to keep them in place.
Measurements:
Outer diameter 90 mm
