{"product_id":"astronomy-moon-and-stars-card-kaleidoscope","title":"Astronomy Moon and Stars Card Kaleidoscope","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis astronomy kaleidoscope wraps a card tube in a deep blue night sky, scattered with gold stars, white crescent moons, bursting starlight and a ringed planet. It measures 19cm long and 4.5cm across, a comfortable size to hold up to one eye, and it is light in the hand. Look through the small eyepiece at the narrow end and the view fills with translucent coloured pieces in red, amber, blue, purple and green, shaped like flowers, stars, leaves and beads. Turn the tube and they tumble into fresh patterns, repeated around the centre like a stained glass window, so no two looks are quite the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a classic toy that rewards a slow look, and it sits happily on a desk, a bedroom bookshelf or a windowsill between turns. Hold it towards a bright window or a lamp for the clearest colours, since the pieces glow when light passes through them. The night sky print brings a little cosmic charm to a shelf of books about the planets, and it is a calm, screen-free way to spend a few quiet minutes. We like it for anyone who enjoys a simple pocket of wonder on a rainy afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tube is made from card with a printed finish, and the parts inside are plastic. A wider collar at one end gives a good grip as you turn it. As it is card, keep it dry and away from spills, and dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth. It is small enough to tuck into a gift bag or wrap alongside a star chart, and the starry print looks lovely sitting out on a shelf between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRex London\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCard tube \u0026amp; plastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.057KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarnings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarning!
