It sits on a small iron tripod — three blackened legs that let it keep its own watch on a desk or a windowsill, aimed at nothing in particular, which is to say, aimed at the horizon. The tripod lifts off when you want to hold it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA monocular spyglass on a detachable iron tripod — the most present, most sculptural of the three, made to be the focus of a study, a model room, or a window display. A decorative piece, not made for viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt echoes the mounted scopes of the surveying and seafaring age — the instrument standing on a deck or a survey point, keeping watch. The aged leather-and-brass scope and the blackened tripod are an intentional finish; a newly made reproduction, not a real antique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSurvey, expedition, the image of one instrument keeping its own watch over the horizon — that is its mood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Old Hours","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":44947535528022,"sku":"FR-FARLOOK-TRIPOD","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/0753\/0070\/files\/tripod-pro-nb-4x5.jpg?v=1781320556","url":"https:\/\/oldhours.com\/products\/the-spyglass-on-three-legs","provider":"The Old Hours","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
