Brass Kaleidoscope - Architect's Edition - 10 cm Wheel

The largest wheel in the 18 cm range: a 10 cm primary wheel paired with a 4 cm secondary wheel, on a 3-mirror first-surface system. The wide wheel gives a slower, larger-scale pattern than the 8 cm models.

Designed and built by a licensed architect, Rocco (Roi) Ramon, in the Studio Yabaye workshop in Israel, from brass tube, cut, fitted and hand-finished. The brass develops a natural patina over time.
