Foucault pendulum – 38cm: This simple device with a black stand is the perfect size to sit on your desk, with its rhythmic motion inscribing beautiful patterns in the sand.

 

The pendulum creates beautiful and complicated geometric patterns in the sand and the patterns are never the same!

 

Conceived as an experiment to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth – while also making intricate patterns in the sand.

 

Foucault pendulum: Watch the rhythmic motion inscribing beautiful patterns into the sand and be mesmerized. The pendulum rocks through the fine sand it gently ‘writes’ an ever-changing geometric pattern and is one of the best learning toys for kids.

 

The patterns change size as the arc of the pendulum changes. The 38cm version has a black stand and is perfect to sit on your desk and watch the patterns transform before your eyes.

 

The simplicity of a pendulum belies its scientific importance, as it has been used to demonstrate a plethora of principles, including the rotation of the Earth, and has been used to detect earthquakes for over a millennium. A fabulous gift for the ‘hard to buy for’ older child or adult.
