"Rock Desert" presents itself in a unique camouflage-like structure which is reproduced in different shades of brown. The limestone processed in the STEINBILD "Rock Desert" was formed about 470 million years ago, at the time of the folding of the Caledonian mountains.
History of origins
Each STEINBILD tells the probably oldest story in the world - our earth history

The collision of two continents caused the folding of the Caledonian mountains (Variscan mountain building).
Mineralogy
The plant world was uninhabited at this time. In the fauna, molluscs and trilobites (arthropods, worms, shell-bearing organisms) developed.
