I recently acquired this all stone version of the Idol! Magic craftsman extraordinaire and good friend Eric Hansen recently completed this. Eric has been very busy with work outside of magic the last few years but am so glad he was able to complete this piece of magic art for me. Everything is stone with the exception the skull which was carved from cow bone.
Eric even included a hand carved idol head from soapstone as a homage to Tenyo.
Both work great and distance is amazing even through stone This is definitely a prized piece in the collection. Thanks Eric!

That is a really classy looking piece. I thought the original Tenyo was impressive (for Tenyo) but this is really the cat's meow!

Just adding my 3 cents worth because anybody can add their 2 cents worth...

Even the different mottling and colors on the individual spheres/marbles is impressive!

Obviously stone is the ideal material that perfectly corresponds to the theme of the EOTI effect. Moreover, it looks absolutely beautiful!

Wow, it looks incredible. I owned the original Eye of the Idol but was always worried the plastic nature of the props made it look like a toy. Your creation takes it to whole new level.

The stone craftsmanship is very beautiful, and it imparts a kind of unique realism, as if it were an ancient and magical treasure. It's superb !
