This is a stained glass kaleidoscope made by award-winning scope maker, Nedra Reed.
This scope is a kevel spinner kaleidoscope that spins on a horizontal plane. The sculptured wheel on the end creates the images within the scope, when it is turned horizontally.   The scope is about 6.5 long and the sides are about an inch high.
This kaleidoscope has a Sky theme.  It is made of a beautiful blue  and white iridescent glass. Iridescent glass is a highly reflective glass that has a rainbow-like sheen. On one side is brass wire  and a fused glass sunrise.  On the other is brass wire and a fused glass moon.  All the fused glass and pottery were made by this artist in her kiln and then incorporated into this one of a kind scope.  The wheel on the end has fused glass pieces with dichroic glass (that "flashes" when you turn the wheel), a pewter moon and star combo, another pewter lightning bolt and a brass star.   The last five pictures are actual views through the scope.  Can you find the sky items? the pictures don't capture the beauty - the flash distorts.  See my customer comments.
Everyone loves a kaleidoscope, and they won't find one of these in a store, since it is totally original and all handmade. This is a piece of art - I've been making scopes for over 25 years.
Quality front-surface mirrors; decorative soldering, magnifying lens in eyepiece.
