Corki kaleidoscope  artistsCorki Weeks is one of the most prolific and creative kaleidoscope artists of the last 30 years. Her work has spanned brass, glass and mixed media for kaleidoscopes ranging from tiny necklaces to large parlor kaleidoscopes. Her knowledge base and warm and open personality have earned her a top spot within the hearts and minds of the kaleidoscope community. Corki is known for developing new and creative mirror systems. Her latest whim is taking down a path of beads and curved and slumped dichroic glass angles. These are appearing within the mirrors and on object cells on her kaleidoscopes and around the necks of those admiring the kaleidoscopes as well as admiring Corki. Corki Weeks is a top kaleidoscope artist.

Here’s the maestro of the Wedding Kaleidoscope, David Kalish at work in his studio!
Karl and I had the wonderful opportunity to travel to the Bay area where David has been designing and producing kaleidoscopes for over 20 years. His most successful design, the Wedding Kaleidoscope is an incredible and unique wedding gift as it allows to separate perspectives of the same object cell.  Here is David examining an object cell for the color proportions in his studio up in the Oakland hills.

Here’s David precisely cutting the mirrors for his new design which I’ll tell you about next.

Here is Hypochondriac!  For anyone in the medical arts, the perfect gift is here!
A mix of over the counter pharmaceuticals are sealed within the object cell along with chrome or brass plated Caduceus.  This gives you a whole new view of pain relief!

Kaleidoscope, Kaleidoscopes,

Here’s David’s new design that incorporates fabric, called SoftCell.  The object cell is a beautiful piece of silk fabric that can be drawn through the cell to create fantastic images.
You can use a silk scarf of your choice to change the colors!

Kaleidoscope artist, NJ Enterprises represent the designs of Nancy and Jean’s fabulous teleidoscopes

N J Kaleidoscope

which are created out of teak, ebony and paduak woods from India.  This wooden kaleidoscope design has only a clear marble at the end so it creates a kaleidoscopic view of whatever you see.  This design in a kaleidoscope makes for a memorable promotional gift as it reinforces a “new perspective” or a “whole new vision”.

Whichever design you choose, each one has an exquisite layer of lacquer to showcase the beauty of the exotic woods.  Each teleidoscope comes with a complimentary wood base and is enclosed within its navy gift box for secure shipping and beautiful presentation.

A teleidoscope crafted by kaleidoscope artist, NJ Enterprises, makes a fantastic and memorable gift."
