"The Bridge" is a beautiful kaleidoscope creation by Mark and Carol Reynolds. This scope has a solid wood body with inlaid glittery circles of color on top, it is mounted on a burl wood base. There are two interchngeable 7-1/2" in diameter, turning, top-lit and side-lit, oil-filled object cells that include lampworked glass, millefiori, beads, and many other of colorful, glittery items. The scope measures approximately 19"T x 20"L x 12-1/2"W. There is a very large viewing port which allows for easy viewing of the absolutely increadible flowing imagery within.
Mark says that the inspiration for the form of this scope comes from the 'Starship Enterprise'. The Bridge on the Enterprise is the central brain of the whole starship. The imagery you see in this kaleidoscope is Mark's rendition of what you would see on the Bridge when the Captain says "Engage" to enter "warp drive". The word Bridge has many meanings in our lives and this is one of them.
