Description from the seller
No reserve price
an antique desk object, characterized by an iconic inclined spherical design clearly inspired by Space Age.
Composed of a large full optical glass hemisphere (converging lens / glass dome magnifier) set in a solid metal frame with a gold/brass finish and a felt-covered base to protect work surfaces.
In addition to serving as an elegant paperweight and vintage decorative piece, it functions perfectly as a panoramic on-bench magnifying lens, ideal for consulting documents, prints, stamps or for inspecting watchmaking minutiae and collectibles.
Era: 1960s / 1970s
Style: Space Age / Mid-Century Modern
Materials: Solid optical glass, gold/brass metal, felt
Conditions: Good vintage overall condition, with charming patina of age and evident signs of superficial wear on the metal frame that attest to its authenticity. The glass lens is clear and fully functional (refer to the photos that are part of the description).
Precise shipping, tracked and with professional protective packaging.
