Product description
This is a nautical sextant by the renowned brand Stanley London, a classic navigation instrument that reflects rich maritime history. The design combines functionality with a refined aesthetic, characteristic of traditional ship instruments.
We cannot say with certainty how old the instrument is. It may be a later production.
The object is crafted from solid brass, ensuring a robust construction and a warm, gold-colored appearance. The sextant features a wooden handle, which offers an authentic contrast to the metal. The instrument contains various lenses and mirrors, as well as a detailed scale. An accompanying compass with a mirror in the lid and a table of natural sine waves on the back completes the set.
The sextant is in good condition, commensurate with its age and intended use. The brass has developed a natural patina that contributes to the historical character of the piece. All visible parts appear intact and the original finish has been preserved.
This navigation instrument is an excellent addition for collectors of maritime antiquities or as a decorative object in a classic or nautically inspired interior. It comes into its own particularly well on a desk, in a bookcase, or as part of a collection of historical instruments.
