2013.4.17Description
Resting on a wooden tripod with supporting center leg, this unknown apparatus is possibly some sort of magnetic or electrical field generator, induced by the layer of red wires encompassing the hollow metal sphere suspended on the stand. This sphere also has the letters 'N' and 'S' written on opposite sides. Four glass rods (5" long, 1" in diameter) descend on each of four corners of the wooden platform. The metal sphere can be spun on a horizontal axis.Collection
