Sphericon Geometric Object

Discovered by Colin J. Roberts, With a centre of gravity that stays constant above the floor as it rolls, and its movement creates an entertaining and unique path.

The Sphericon from the matter collection features curves and edges expressing geometric simplicity in a desk sculpture that combines beauty in art and science. A Three-dimensional figures with geometrical characteristics that seem self-contradictory - constructed by cutting a solid of revolution in half and rejoining it at a 90º turn.

Choose from either Brass or Stainless Steel, both machined from a solid block of steel or brass and finished with a lovely tactile brushed finish.

The Sphericon has one continuous surface and two discontinuous edges, meaning they can roll on the surface until the inertia is over.
