An Amber Astrolabe in Layered Paper
Layered paper rings give the astrolabe real depth.
✍️ Paper sculpture depends on offset between layers. Each ring is shifted only slightly, then side light casts narrow shadows and the thickness appears, with no need to build real volume. The paper-edge colors also tell you whether each layer is amber or slate blue.
