Product Description:
One of my table top creations. The name for this type of item is an ORRERY! Steampunk inspired but based in real historical science (the concept, not the actual system shown!). In real life it would be much larger and mechanical with moving gears and whatnot... a way to see the planets and other heavely bodies move around each other and their star no matter it it were our solar system or another. In this case we must settle for a non moving minature replica of this far flung alien star system complete with large miniature style slender base in copper finish, golden yellow sun surrounded by a spiralling nebulae cloud sort of like rings (also, I might ad, made of wood) and a total of six planetary bodies including main planets and moons of various sizes and colors like blue, green, earthen, copper, etc...Site:
