A teleidoscope rather than a conventional kaleidoscope, this 7.0-inch brass instrument uses an open lens end to capture and multiply real-world scenes into repeating symmetrical mandala patterns. The etched brass barrel has an antique, collectible character that sits naturally alongside navigational and scientific instrument collections. Point the open end at any surface and the three-mirror array transforms it into a mandala of infinite variation. A hardwood display stand is included, allowing the piece to be exhibited at an inviting angle when not in active use. Ideal for gift retailers, science museums, and optical curiosity specialists.
