Leitz Wetzlar Brass Microscope - Scientific Instrument - Working Order - Early 20th Century","description":"A charming antique brass hourglass or sand timer with turned column supports and a beautifully simple classical form. This small decorative piece has a wonderfully atmospheric old world look, with warm aged brass tones and softly timeworn glass giving it excellent character. The proportions and elegant turned supports give it a distinctly Victorian or Edwardian scientific \/ library aesthetic that works beautifully in dark academia, gothic revival and maximalist interiors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe timer retains its original pale sand and remains fully functional, making it an appealing decorative object as well as an interesting desk or shelf accessory. Its compact scale makes it ideal for styling amongst antique books, curiosities and scientific instruments. Pieces like this have become increasingly popular with younger buyers looking for interiors that feel collected, intellectual and slightly eccentric.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall good antique condition with age related wear and patina consistent with age and use. Displays very well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasures approximately 8cm tall and 4cm diameter (3 1\/8\" x 1 1\/2\").","brand":"CIRCUS OF CURIOS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56677217337730,"sku":"28-05-26-N-S-5?-?","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/1405\/9185\/files\/il_fullxfull.8119828997_pzb1.jpg?v=1779993341","url":"https:\/\/circusofcurios.com\/products\/antique-e-leitz-wetzlar-brass-microscope-scientific-instrument-working-order-early-20th-century-1","provider":"CIRCUS OF CURIOS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
