Velvet depth.
 
This framed Hexarthrius parryi specimen pairs bold structure with soft contrast. Fully spread, the matte black body and translucent wings are set against a deep black velvet backing, allowing the warm amber tones of the elytra to emerge gradually as the light shifts. The effect is subtle but immersive—dark, dimensional, and quietly dramatic.
 
The presentation remains restrained and intentional: a single specimen centered within a black frame, with texture and symmetry doing the work rather than ornamentation.
