AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This telescope from the second half of the 20th century is made of golden brass and wood, combining noble materials that evoke the aesthetic of classic nautical instruments. Its extensible design allows adjusting the length of the tube, which not only adds visual presence but also guarantees fully operational optical performance, turning it into a decorative piece that can also be used.

The main tube, crafted in polished brass, features a warm, elegant shine that highlights the joints and extension rings. The wood of the stand and the tripod—when used as a floor piece—provides stability and a natural contrast that balances the metal. Thanks to its adaptable structure, it can be placed both on a table and in an elevated position, making it versatile for different spaces.

The set conveys an air of exploration and nostalgia, typical of scientific instruments reinterpreted in a decorative key during the twentieth century. Its meticulous finish and sculptural presence make it an ideal piece for offices, libraries, living rooms, or thematic environments inspired by navigation and adventure.

Certified shipping and good packaging.
