Photorealistic Artifact in a Time Machine Chamber

Photorealistic scene inside a time machine chamber: an ancient artifact rests on a velvet pedestal. The artifact is a carved obsidian idol with intricate gold inlays and a pulsating crystal at its center, radiating blue temporal energy. The chamber blends brass gears, glass tubes, copper piping, and holographic chronometers. A soft amber-blue light bathes the room as a shimmering temporal field swirls around the artifact. Dust motes float in the air; polished brass surfaces reflect the glow; a viewport reveals a swirling time-vortex outside. Close-up on the artifact with a shallow depth of field, ultra-detailed textures, realistic reflections, and cinematic, high-resolution lighting. Hyperrealistic photorealism.
