Brass Table Top Telescope
675.00 €
Brass Table Top Telescope.
Objective diameter about 71 mm, focal length about 1000 mm
late 19th early 20th century. No engraving found anywhere. It is a fairly typical English telescope of the time, and it was very likely made by Broadhurst Clarkson. This elegant, brass 3” refractor on a claw foot table mount would have made any late 1800’s parlour complete.
Almost 1.5 metres long when focused, this telescope is mechanically sound, using a single focus wheel mounted on the right side of the tube. The lacquer on this unbranded example is original, all mechanics are in good condition and function correctly, and the lens is clear & damage free. The brass shows typical wear for an object of this age. Its’ original wooden box is included, as is one additional eyepiece.
A beautiful item which wears its’ age with class.
Feet are wrought steel,
Telescope does show some expected wear along with minor dings. Comes with 2 eyepieces and a wooden box
Item condition: used, but with visible cosmetic markings
