/* Sika ne Gold, shared stylesheet (v3)
   Layout concept: a light, treasury-style page (porcelain ground, white surfaces, hairline rules)
   broken by deep vault-navy bands where the Midjourney photography lives. One signature element:
   the assay slip, a white specification card with a hallmark stamp that overlays imagery.
   Components read their colours from local variables (--fg, --fg-2, --mute, --rule, --surface),
   so any dark band only redefines those variables. */
