This is a solid high-grade brass armillary sphere, mounted on a turned hardwood base with a lovely antique like brass finish. At its core lies a functional compass used by the seafarers who once relied on such instruments to navigate the vast oceans. The armillary sphere itself, with its series of metal rings resembling the hoops of a barrel, encircles a small globe representing the Earth. It's a symbol of humanity's quest to understand the cosmos, with the signs of the zodiac delicately engraved upon its surface.
