This miniature antique-style ship engine telegraph is a detailed brass reproduction of the classic maritime communication device used to relay speed commands from the bridge to the engine room. Stands approximately 7 inches tall with a 3-inch-wide solid wood base. It has moving brass arms that click into position, displaying commands such as "Slow," "Half," and "Full." Historically, engine telegraphs were essential on steamships, ensuring precise coordination between navigators and engineers.
