Lotus Scopes is the latest incarnation of “the Alex Bouteneff tradition of fine motor skills as art.” Having mastered the crafts of woodworking, wooden inlay and ships in bottles before turning his manual talents to a career as an ENT surgeon, he sees these “formative episodes” as milestones on his journey here.

 

His  handmade artisan scopes are truly original creations, great for gift giving.  They are perfect for those hard to shop for folks! Our one of a kind, collectible kaleidoscopes, made from hand etched brass or Alex's signature hand blown glass are perfect for men and ladies, collectors and admirers. Each unique scope contains a 2 or 3 mirror image of lampworked glass and natural material, in either a dry or oil filled chamber forming a sensational pattern. You'll never see the same image twice.

 

Perhaps you'll choose a 6 inch brass teleidoscope: everyone will enjoy seeing their environment through the teleidoscope that allows their  world to be transformed into a kaleidoscopic image!
