The 'arm' bit is jointed and has tiny magnets on it so it closes around the 'crystal' part

Ah, I see. I only ask because the Danes and Swedes open their Christmas presents on the 24th.

Can you swivel the crystal so the metal forms a chain with the glass outside?

That is indeed a mystery.

Can't be that Bill; the glass has an opaque back.
By:

Cant see through it

It has a black rubbery backing

Can you remove the glass and place a picture or a pressed flower behind it?

It might be a device that presents such objects in an amusing manner.

By:

Backing and glass appear to be pretty secure and cant get them off.

New development though..the crystal bit slides out on its pivot around 10 mm

By:

Well, it might be capable of focussing the sun's rays to start a fire. Perhaps a faceted lens can do this better than a smooth one? Just a wild guess.
By:

2 of the links have tiny magnets on them and they line up with 2 tiny magnets on the side of the crystal so it prevents it from spinning while closed up.

This will make for a good quiz over Christmas for visiting family

Just shone a torch into it and it projected a secret map onto the ceiling.

Just kidding.... worked like a glitter ball and shone random lights everywhere
