Where it came from
Released in the early 1970s, the 1147-1 Light Prisms set was produced by Lego as an auxiliary accessory designed to be integrated with existing lighting systems or used as standalone refractive elements. During this era, the company experimented with various electrical components and peripheral kits to expand the play value of their standard brick systems, moving beyond basic construction into functional, light-manipulating builds.
The design of these prisms reflects the technical aesthetic of Lego's industrial period, focusing on simple geometry and transparency. The inclusion of red and yellow light covers allowed users to modify the hue of their light sources, encouraging basic scientific exploration of optics within a toy context. While these components are now considered vintage curiosities, they represent a period when the brand sought to integrate modular electronics more deeply into their creative ecosystem.
