„Lilium Metropolis“ besticht durch seine einzigartige Aderung sowie der Farbgebung in kräftigem Lilastich. Der im STEINBILD „Lilium Metropolis“ verarbeitete Marmor entstand vor ca. 90 Mio. Jahren, als die Verbindung zwischen Tethys und der Nordsee vorzufinden war.
History of origins
Each STEINBILD tells the probably oldest story in the world - our earth history
At the time of the formation of this natural stone was the connection between the Tethys and the North Sea. The sea level was 100-300 m above the present level.
Mineralogy
Rudists appeared for the first time and replaced corals in reef building. This was a great step of flora development. More and more cover-seeded plants such as magnolias, willows and precursors of lilies developed. At the same time the esten deciduous trees and grasses appeared and spread. At that time Gallimus and Parasaurus appeared.
