Kaleidoscope

Description

A tube, a few mirrors, and a handful of coloured fragments. That’s all Sir David Brewster needed when he invented the kaleidoscope in 1817. Give it a turn and you get a completely different pattern every time. It never gets old. This brass and wood kaleidoscope is light enough to handle easily, but solid enough to feel well made. Warm wood, precise brass, and an endlessly changing pattern at the other end. A wonderful thing to have on a shelf, or to put in someone’s hands.
