A nod to the golden age of exploration, this Brass & Leather Telescope with Adjustable Tripod Stand brings a sense of scholarly adventure and timeless style to any setting. Crafted in solid brass with a hand-finished antiqued patina, it rests atop a weighty, adjustable tripod, built to balance even on uneven terrain. The refractor-style lens, encased in a tan leather-wrapped barrel, offers both charm and functionality, with a clear glass view and smooth manual focus via its precision turning mechanism. An attached finderscope adds to its authenticity and ease of use.
At once ornamental and operational, it’s perfect for casual stargazing or simply admiring the horizon. Whether perched in a study, a coastal retreat, or atop a handsome desk, this piece evokes a world of sea charts, staterooms, and evenings spent charting constellations. A striking gift for the nautically inclined or the collector of finely made curiosities.
