Product Details
'Moonlight Goblet' is an elegantly rustic handheld kaleidoscope by Japanese artist Mizue Tatekawa. The hourglass shaped body features fused layers of glass depicting a silhouetted Stag and forest trees on a blue background. There is an enclosed object chamber, oil-filled, non-turning, front lit, white backgrounded, which contains teeny, delicate, handmade lamp-worked glass pieces and dichroic (color-shifting) glass. This is a 2-mirror, 8-point system with a cool textural "tunnel" in the images. Additionally, if you move a light source along the sides of the body, the dichroic effects are utterly spectacular. Magnificent "mandala-style" kaleidoscopic imagery is created with this unique piece. Measures approximately 7"T x 3"Diameter.
