Product Details
'Dichroma K-pod' is a lovely, limited edition only NINE created, handheld kaleidoscope by American artist and Scope Master, Charles Karadimos. The body was created in a violet slumped glass with small, clear glass beads just under the surface creating an almost tapioca-like illusion, accented with black and iridescent rectangular glass pieces fused to the body surface on both sides. The turning, front lit, dry, glass object cell is filled with Charles' signature handmade glass-worked bits and pieces, tiny glass ampules containing itty-bitty glass beads, iridescent glass shards, dichroic (color-shifting) glass pieces, and has a slightly frosted glass background. The body houses a 2-mirror, 9-point system which produces perfectly crisp, meticulously detailed, and absolutely GORGEOUS "mandala-style" kaleidoscopic imagery, much better than these photos show. Measures approximately 6"T x 3" at it's widest point, the object cell is just under 2"Diameter. Numbered (7/9), dated (2026), and signed (C.S. Karadimos) by the artist.
NOTE: The last 3 sets of internal images show that changing the angle of your light source without turning the object cell will alter the imagery in various ways. It's very interesting to try different lighting such as direct Sunlight or even a UV Black Light, have fun!
