Queen Anne's Lace Kaleidoscopes
Falling Leaves Kaleidoscope
This
kaleidoscope tube has been covered with Thai Unryu Banana Paper,
then covered with leaves collected in the fall of the year. Spun
Silk Paper wisps add threads of various colors to the effect.
Because I design kaleidoscopes with tubes of brass, wood or
covered with surface design, they are wonderfully lightweight.
The scope itself includes an optical quality 3-mirror system. The free
falling chamber is
filled with various bits and pieces, and there are no moving
parts in my scope designs. One simply rotates the whole tube to
enjoy a changing pattern. This enables the mirror system inside
to be as large as possible, to maximize what is viewed in the
object chamber. These may include antique or new bugle beads,
flameworking, millefiori, glass fragments, decorative beads, and
twisted wire. There is no way to make two identical
kaleidoscopes; each one is unique!
Dimensions: 2" x 8 ½"
