Kaleidoscope

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.
