This cyclone sphere is an interactive object. The sphere contains four rather large air trap bubbled which are spun around each other to create the design pattern. While the object is round at the time of make, a sphere machine is used to make the cyclone perfectly spherical. The stand is also machined to a tight radius so the cyclone spins quite freely. The lead crystal stand has dichroic coating on the bottom and as the cyclone spins, the color is captured by the air traps. Signed "Beetem 2011". Stand is included.
Condition: (9.8).
Item Dimensions: 2 - 7/8" Dia.
