A finely polished thick box of Indian Rosewood, or Sheesham wood (Dalbergia Sisoo) with brass inlaid corner accents and center top anchor opens to reveal a real working solid brass 4 section nautical telescope with black leather covered final section for easy hold. Optics adjust by simply shortening or lengthening shaft. When fully extended, telescope measures 15 1/2 inches long, and the lovely box it comes in is 7" x 2.5" x 3". You're going to need this to spot the Bettys! This is a decorative/prop/recreational level telescope.
