Fractured Glacier, Bismuth Levitating Kinetic Art Sculpture, Unique Desk or Bookshelf Science Decor
The magnet between the bismuth crystals really is floating there, touching nothing but air, and it will stay that way until you disturb it. These crystals are solid bismuth, and this little arrangement achieves perfect balance with this amazing metal's force.
How? The hardwood base contains an array of magnets. Bismuth, however, is diamagnetic repelling both north and south poles equally. With this arrangement, the magnets in the base pull and lift, while the bismuth pushes and holds the little magnet in a small pocket of stability. * Please note that the base magnets might vary slightly from the photos depending on the availability of the magnets at the time of purchase.
What's Included:
1. Bismuth crystals similar to those in the pictures
2. A magnetic array built into a finished hardwood platform
3. For floating
Two - 3mm cube magnets
Two - 4mm cube magnets
One - 5mm cube magnet

It's very easy to set up. Just put the piece on a semi-level surface. Slip your magnet between the crystals. Then adjust the crystals on either side until you achieve balance.
Safety & care:
This sculpture uses strong magnets. Keep away from small children, pacemakers, and sensitive electronics. Handle with care — the floating magnets are small and could be a choking hazard if dislodged.
