This elegant table-top instrument, featuring a trio of Cold Plates - brass plates of different shapes on wooden conical columns - is a classic physics device used since the 19th century to study vibrational modes in plates. When shaken, characteristic patterns, called Chladni figures, are formed on the sand-scattered surface, revealing the behaviour of the material and its resonant frequencies. Patinated brass and dark wood give the instrument an authentic, laboratory to museum-like character, ideal for film, educational scenes, scientific environments or historical exhibitions.
