Item Descripiton
Key Features
Exceptional Woodcraft: The body features beautiful curved bends, with different types of wood used for the body, tip, and rear sections to create a unified, elegant aesthetic.
Dual-Display Design: This versatile piece can be placed upright, resembling a majestic tower, or horizontally, where it takes on a trumpet-like silhouette.
Polarizing Prism Magic: Unlike standard kaleidoscopes, this work uses polarizing plates within the objects, creating a spectrum of colors and spatial depth that feels both familiar and otherworldly.
3-Mirror Oil System: The isosceles triangle, 3-mirror configuration produces large, breathtaking vertical patterns. The high-quality oil ensures smooth, lingering image transitions that draw the viewer in.
Lightweight & Ergonomic: Despite its impressive 198mm height, Takeyama’s expert construction keeps the piece surprisingly light (220g) and comfortable to hold.
Award-Winning Heritage: Takeyama debuted in 2009, winning the Excellence Award at the International Kaleidoscope Association's National Open Exhibition, followed by a Special Award the following year.
