Vertical Geological Strata Woven in Raw Silk Ribbons

A 9:16 aspect ratio smartphone wallpaper composition presenting an immense geological cross-section reinterpreted entirely through layered textiles. Thousands of taut raw silk threads, unspun wool roving, and translucent amber resin sheets create dense, stratified bands in tones of ocher, cinnabar, slate grey, and pale ivory across the lower two-thirds of the frame. Small inclusions of raw mineral crystals, pyrite clusters, and petrified oak bark are nestled between the dimensional fiber strata. The upper third of the vertical frame softly tapers into fine, unadorned ivory silk threads and soft ambient light, preserving a clean, functional area for lock-screen clocks and interface widgets under raking side illumination.
