Adirondack Chair with Iron Fly Pole

The gyroscope created by 19th-century experimental physicist Léon Foucault inspired this openwork globe. Its double-gimbal frame is built of iron around a nucleus of upraised lights, an homage to Foucault's study of the earth's rotation. Glass and crystal glass, precision-cut and polished for refraction and sparkle, are set within the slim iron frame.
