Lovingly crafted in Israel by Roy Cohen. These exquisite handmade brass Kaleidoscopes are made using techniques originating from the invention of the kaleidoscope in 1817. One end consists of two mirrors and a closed section containing glass shards, beads and other reflective objects, which move and drop within the void when the barrel is turned. The result is at every moment a beautiful image is created by light entering from the side.
A clear barrel filled with oil is used to create movement. Glass beads, natural stones and other special elements float within the oil. The smooth movement of the objects occurs independently without need of human intervention. The user can just watch and enjoy the spectacular images flowing in harmony and changing every moment before our eyes.
ABOUT THE DESIGNER ROY COHEN
Roy Cohen has been making Kaleidoscopes from his studio in Southern Israel for the last 30 years. Since childhood he has been fascinated with bold colds and gemoetric patterns. As an adult he became a photographer and studied architecture and learnt how to depth how to use mirrors, reflections and light in design.
A short time after, on his first attempt to create a kaleidoscope he realised that this was what he wanted to do for the rest of my life. This was the starting point of my career, and my mission became to make sure that others would be able to share and experience this beauty.
