Peacock Kaleidoscope in the Works

Handcrafted

Metal etching is a multi-step chemical process that allows for beautiful designs in relief on metal. Each kaleidoscope is individually designed and etched. While some designs may have a similar pattern there no two are ever the same. The depth of the etch, surface treatment, and colorization are unique. The etching process introduces distinctive characteristics to each piece. The object chambers are also individually created, no two kaleidoscopes or object chambers are ever identical.
