Product Details
'Butterflies' - Teal, is a gorgeous handheld kaleidoscope by Japanese artist and scope master Yasuko Nakazato. The body was created with two pieces of slumped glass, in deep teal, with a cut-out butterfly design which reveals another layer of shimmering metallic glass highlighting as the butterfly's wings. The turning, oil-filled, front-lit, custom made object cylinder is unique in that it is split into two horizontal halves. One half contains clear yet polarized materials which shift in color depending on the angle your light source hits them (this is where the rainbow colors are coming from), the other half is filled with beautiful handcrafted lampwork glass bits, twists and pieces in greens and white. Looking through the scope's 3-mirror system and into a custom, double-layer cylinder you will see truly incredible kaleidoscopic imagery. Measures approximately 7.25"L x 3.25"W at the object end and is signed by the artist (Yasuko). Note: Sets of photos show the changing effect of moving the light source instead of the object cylinder, creating limitless possibilities!
