Did you know that kaleidoscopes were not native to Japan? On the contrary, they were introduced to the country by merchants from the West Indies. Due to their isolation from most other lands in the early 1800s, the Japanese were wary of new ideas that would potentially conflict with the established order of things. Yet, people quickly took them into their hands. The 百色眼鏡 "Hyaku-iro Megane" or "mirror tubes with hundred colors" were embraced into the culture, which is why the first-ever kaleidoscope museum was founded by Dr. Hirotomo Ochi in 1999.
