This stunning chrome wheel kaleidoscope is signed by the artist, Sue Rioux for Chesnik Studios. It is a smaller version of the popular Floret Dichroic (ECD), and is just as exquisite with it’s rich and vibrant colors inside. Two wheels are made of dichroic glass that burst with a lovely array of colors. Dichroic glass is formed by vacuum plating various metals on the surface of glass. The result is that a rainbow of colors are formed as colors around the kaleidoscope seem to affect this dichroic glass.
Additional wheels are available to use and interchange with the dichroic glass wheels that are standard. You might decide to add either or both agate and/or bright stained glass wheels to vary the array of colors. Besides the loveliness of the inside, Sue Rioux craftsmanship is superb to the exacting standards of the founder Janice Chesnik. Every detail is evident down to her fine mirror system, which is acclaimed as among the finest in the business. The chrome barrels have been professionally coated with a tarnish resistant finish also. This professional finishing process is the same that manufacturers of faucets provide. A beautiful wooden base completes the two wheel kaleidoscope.
