The floor-standing Refracting Telescope is a beautiful telescope mounted on a wooden tripod. This telescope is a fully functioning nautical masterpiece that adds class and sophistication to any room it’s in. This is a perfect nautical gift for the explorer in your life. The main scope shines beautifully when placed in the sunlight. Focusing is accomplished by adjusting the eyepiece ring on the telescope tube, with up to 18x magnification. A removable cap, connected by a chain, protects the objective lens. The wooden tripod stand features smooth, polished round legs, each with solid fittings and a screw release to let you adjust the height. A chain holds the three wooden legs together so the telescope can maintain its position. The telescope body is wrapped in leather. Glass optics provide a clear view. The fully functional telescope focuses and magnifies and the sturdy wooden tripod supports the telescope when viewing.
