Melrose Window was a limited edition of 20. It has a gothic/medieval feel to it, complete with dragons,
wizards, and crystals. It's one of the finest stained glass wheel scopes ever made. 8½" twin object wheels
containing over 60 and 200 different pieces of stained glass triangular pieces and semi-precious stones.
The soldering work is outstanding. The image is reminiscent of a church's stained glass windows.
This is a special edition of this distinctive scope. It is one of only two pieces (and the only one extant) of this edition produced in
red rather than the more common blue. It is made of a special glass, has additional and larger crystals, has a
larger Merlin figure, and some other features making it a one of a kind kaleidoscope.
