Antique 19th Century Small Brass Telescope with Leather Case

Antique 19th century small brass telescope

This piece was probably made in Great Britian and might have been military issued.
It consists of six extendable tubes and features a tiny cover that can be slide in front of the lens.

It’s a highly decorative, and unique item that would fit perfectly in a nautical collection but could also still come in handy while searching for pirates!

After more than a century the telescope still remains in good condition but shows some wear due to use and time. One of the small leather loops on top of the leather case is torn on one side.

Measurements:
extended lenght: 36,5 cm
retracted length: 11,5 cm
Diameter lens: 3,5 cm

length case: 13 cm
