Vintage Nixie Tubes from the USSR are reclaimed after 30-60 years in Russian
warehouses by Industrial Designer, Mike Mayberry and his company, Klok
Modern. Exquisitely diplayed in his custom fabricated, limited edition,
aircraft aluminum housing and sold as a kit for home assembly. The beauty of
the ten layered electrodes glowing orange with overlapping dimension can only
be appreciated when it's right in front of you.
