RARE ANTIQUED BRASS ARABIC / PERSIAN NAVIGATIONAL / CELESTIAL REVOLVING GLOBE ON NUMBERED BEZEL

A great display collectible for your office desktop. Wonderful investment for a collector of Arabian / Islamic scientific antiques. Astronomical details on the sphere include stars but no constellations. A total of 14 stars are labelled. The ecliptic longitudes of a number of stars have been determined, for example one star in Gemini indicates that it represents the northern 'horn of the bull'. By comparing these values with the Ptolemaic catalogue for AD137, and using the Arabic rate for precession, the epoch of the stars has been determined as 1615, with an uncertainty of 65 years.

Hi - question isn't directly about this item - I note that most or all of your items come from India, and I thought you might be able to assist. A number of Indian manufacturers supply good quality reproduction helmets. I am looking specifically for a brass fireman helmet, as well as a Prussian helmet (WW1 or earlier). Can you help? Thanks A. - Asked by Adanedhel (290 Rating score between 100 and 499
