VINTAGE WOOD KALEIDOSCOPE ON STAND NICHOLAS II VAN CORT INSTRUMENTS 1997

This amazing wooden compact kaleidoscope on stand is called the Nicholas II, designed after one of the Czar Alexander III & his son Nicholas II’s Victorian Fabergé eggs, manufactured by Van Cort Instruments. In a delightful egg shape, the egg measures 2-1/2”, & the stand measures 2”. Manufactured in the USA in 1997, the luxe, smooth sculpted birch wood is in shades of rust orange & browns with brass ends & stand. In EVC, it was collected & displayed in a curio all its life with the certificate. I tried to take a pic of your view of the colors & design of the hand lamp worked glass through the ocular lens, but it didn’t go so well, as only a teeny section would photograph, included in pics anyway! This makes an amazing gift for a collector & for the person who has everything! * I don’t issue returns or partial refunds, so please view pics & read description thoughtfully, thanks for understanding!
