Description: This antique 19th century German telescope is a true gem for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Crafted from brass, glass, and leather, it exudes a rich history and culture. The telescope is believed to have been made by Ruft, a renowned maker of maritime telescopes. The piece is an original antique, hailing from Germany and boasting exceptional quality. Its primary material is brass, which is evident in its durability and longevity. The telescope is a great addition to any maritime or antique collection and is sure to be a conversation starter. This is in need of repair, there is an inner lens that is loose and out of place, you can only see light without the lens in place. it may need more than just that. there is really fine writing on the copper end and the only word I can make out with a magnifying glass is Ruft, which I believe is German for invoke.
