"Halo" Large-Scale Bismuth Levitation Sculpture
"Halo" Large-Scale Bismuth Levitation Sculpture
About This Piece
Discover the mesmerizing world of magnetic levitation with our Bismuth Maglev Levitation Sculpture — a kinetic art piece that brings science and aesthetics together in perfect harmony. This sculpture features a large ring magnet that floats entirely on air, demonstrating diamagnetic levitation in its purest form.
How It Works
-
No power required: The floating magnet levitates thanks to bismuth’s diamagnetic properties.
-
Manual control: Simply twist the top magnet to raise or lower the floating ring; optionally, spin it for a hypnotic effect.
-
Precision tuning: The system is finely calibrated for stability, offering a truly magical visual experience.
Why It Stands Out
-
Scientific artistry: More than just décor — it’s a kinetic sculpture rooted in real physics.
-
Conversation starter: Ideal for desks, labs, or homes — sparks curiosity and wonder.
-
Perfect gift for scientists and makers: Whether for a physicist, engineer, or science lover, this is a unique, premium gift.
Specifications
-
Floating magnet ring: 0.197″ (5 mm) thick, 0.984″ (25 mm) inner diameter, 1.378″ (35 mm) outer diameter
-
Base: 3″ tall, 3.5″ square footprint; total height ≈ 9″
-
Material: Bismuth-based diamagnetic setup + high-grade magnet
Care & Usage
Handle with care: The levitating magnet is delicate — avoid jarring the base. For best results, place on a level, stable surface.
Optional: Spin the top magnet gently to maintain motion.
