The mobile structure has been made of steel to make it magnetizable. All branches of the mobile are held together by spherical magnets. This allows all parts of the mobile to rotate 360°. The fish, made of synthetic materials, are soft, slightly translucent, and wriggle when Mirages moves. The parallelepipeds forming the bodies of the fish are silvered, reflecting light in flashes like a real school of fish would.
