Did you know?
Snowflakes are ice crystals that form in clouds through a process of water vapor freezing around microscopic dust particles. Each snowflake grows with six-fold radial symmetry, creating the distinctive branching patterns visible in this design. This natural geometry—where no two snowflakes ever form identically, yet all follow the same mathematical rules—has captivated artists and scientists for centuries as a symbol of winter's quiet, crystalline beauty.
