Product display unit

Abstract

A product display unit is provided wherein a half model of an object appears as the complete object rotating freely in space. The product display unit includes an external box with a reflective surface mounted therein at a 45° angle relative to the bottom surface of the external box. A rotation mechanism is positioned adjacent the back side of the reflective surface and has at least one magnet thereon. The half model of the object has at least one magnet on the back side thereof, and is positioned on the front side of the reflective surface. The magnets attract each other so as to hold the half model against the reflective surface, while the rotation of the rotation mechanism causes the half model to rotate as well. The reflection of the half model in the reflective surface, together with the actual half model, create the perception of the full object.
