Vintage Armillary Heavy Weight in Black Sculpture

Description

A astrological armillary sphere used to guide astronomers to map the cosmos many years ago with it's changing patterns; this armillary now is used as a decroative desk top display or a mantle showpiece. This one came from the 1980's period and the patina has nicely aged. It stands 14" high by 11" wide and deep. As with many of my items, I found this at the unique antique store in Las Vegas, NV.

It should be noted this item is very heavy and does weigh 4 pounds therefore shipping charge is more than normal. Thank you.
