Prism 90x45x45 Degrees

Introduce children to the beauty of light and colour with this 90x45x45 Degree Prism. This solid glass triangular prism is designed to split white light into its component colours, creating a visible spectrum that brings optical science to life. Its hand-crafted precision and clear glass body allow for beautiful, bright refractions when used in sunlight or with directed light sources. Ideal for hands-on demonstrations, the prism can be used in both primary and secondary science lessons to show ho...
