Bubblessence and Bubblicious are new designs by Tom and Carol Paretti. Hidden within the leather wrapped tube accented with wood and brass you will find a 2-mirror system that creates a 5-point mandala. The system is completed with Paretti's signature wood panel that adds texture to the perimeter of the illusion.

What is exciting about Bubblessence and Bubblicious is the innovative, compartmentalized object chamber. Essentially, the Paretti's divided the object chamber into two separate sections. The main compartment includes dichroic glass, lamp worked glass and beads suspended in oil. The upper layer or compartment has grooved cut acrylic with clear silicone. It is this upper compartment that is crucial to the illusion's success. Essentially it is here that the unique bubble effect you see when viewing the images is formed. The bubbles create droplets of air floating through the illusion. All of this is set against a background of black (Bubblessence) or clear (Bubblicious) acrylic.

Bubblessence is available in a black leather body. Bubbliscious is available in a burgundy leather body. Each measures 9 inches tall by 3 5/8 inches in diameter. Available with clear or black-backed object chamber.
