Antique Brass Two Draw Telescope

This is a vintage brass two-draw telescope, a compact and portable optical instrument likely used for terrestrial or astronomical observation. The telescope features a two-section draw, allowing for adjustment of the focal length. The brass construction suggests a quality build and a pleasing aesthetic, typical of telescopes from the 19th or early 20th century.

Condition and Collectibility

This telescope exhibits signs of age and use, with a patina developed over time. While the optics have not been assessed, the telescope presents well as a display piece or collectible. Its compact size and brass construction make it a desirable item for collectors of scientific instruments or antique optical devices.
