Description from the seller
A Vintage Chrome Brass Telescope and Binocular – Complete with Original Cases – 1990s
Fascinating lot composed of a vintage telescope and a binocular, both fully functional, each complete with its original case. Two instruments that combine collectible charm, build quality, and a strong visual impact, ideal for optics enthusiasts, collectors, and lovers of nautical and classic style furnishing.
The first telescope is an important brass chrome model, equipped with a refined leather-covered grip designed to ensure a secure hold and to limit overheating of the instrument during prolonged use under the sun. The quality of craftsmanship and its dimensions make it a highly appealing object, perfect for observation as well as a prestigious decorative piece.
The second is a pocket-style telescope in a slim format, crafted as an elegant high-end gadget. Compact and practical, it preserves the charm of traditional theater binoculars in a easily portable version. It is also fully functional and complete with the original lenses.
Both instruments date from the 1990s and represent an interesting testimony to the production of decorative high-quality optical instruments. Displayed together they form a refined furnishing complement for professional studios, libraries, lounges, or nautical-themed environments, in addition to being a highly interesting addition to any collection devoted to optical instruments.
