Decorative Lenses on Stands
“These lenses on stands are just a perfect example of a folly. You don’t buy them because you need a lens on a stand: you buy them because they’re fun. They bring height to a tabletop. The lens itself will refract light in interesting ways. This is really just an object of fancy.”
