Playable Art Helicone

$72.00 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Instantly transform the Helicone with one quick twist, changing this intriguing kinetic sculpture from a helix into a pinecone, and then back again. The Helicone features 38 precise, laser-cut pieces assembled on a brass tube and attached to a solid wood base. The aesthetic structure of the Helicone is based on the same mathematical concepts found in nature, such as the golden angle and the Fibonacci numbers. A piece of expressive, playful tabletop art for both adults and kids.
