Balance Toys

Gadgets inspired by science were highly popular in the Victorian period. People loved demonstrations of the seemingly impossible, and optical illusions, magnetic forces, the laws of gravity etc, all seemed magical in an era when the industrial revolution was changing society rapidly. Balance toys became popular in such a time; people wanted their toys to appear fascinating to the eye.
