Satoshi Tomizu- Microcosms

Small universes housed in glass spheres by Satoshi Tomizu




Each one of these pendants created by Japanese glass artist Satoshi Tomizu carries within it a whole galaxy. Though they’re no larger than an eyeball, the artist renders an entire galactic microcosm inside each sphere made up of opals, gold flakes, and swirling trails of colored glass. Looking inside one of these seemingly luminescent pieces could easily remind one of the starry night sky above. The spheres come with loops so you can easily chain them and wear them around your neck.

I found this and just really liked the idea of a small microcosm similar to this. I've always had a love for mood rings and love the way they represent so many things. I really like the way they a so small and yet they contain one of the biggest things in the universe. The colours and shapes are magical and create really nice images. 
I believe they would look even more beautiful with some light shining through them.
