Gold Tesserae

A mosaic glitters because the tesserae are deliberately set at slightly different angles, so gold leaf catches light unevenly across the surface and the whole field seems to shift as you move. Flat, uniform placement kills it, and that is where most imitations fail. This template holds that irregularity. Setting, light and grout stay locked across all nine versions. Three short keywords change the panel: the motif, the tesserae, and the ground.
