When we first picked up a CMY Cube, we understood the fuss straight away. One twist becomes another, the colours keep changing, and before long everyone nearby wants a turn.
Made with transparent cyan, magenta and yellow colour filters, the CMY Cube creates an ever-changing optical experience as its faces overlap. Rotate it slowly and watch new colours appear, then hold it near sunlight, a torch or a phone light to cast colourful reflections onto nearby walls and surfaces.
3 Sizes available - Choose from Mini, Original or MEGA!
