Beschreibung: This precise historical surveying instrument from the late 19th century is a cylindrical pantometer, which served surveyors, foresters, and builders for setting out right angles and accurately measuring horizontal angles in the field. Its robust body of patinated brass consists of two rotating cylindrical parts, between which a finely engraved angular scale (limbus) is located for precise readings. Targeting measured objects was done through longitudinal sighting slits (diopters). The instrument includes a detachable tube, a bottom thread for attachment to a measuring rod or tripod, and its original wooden case with brass hooks. The inside of the box lid bears the authentic ink stamp of the prestigious French manufacturer and optician: "MAISON CROSTI / L. LARGHI Neveu, Sucer / OPTICIEN-FABRICANT / 5, Rue Ste-Catherine, 5 / BORDEAUX". The entire set is in excellent collectible condition with a beautiful period patina, making it an exceptionally attractive and valuable piece from the field of historical technical mechanics and geodesy.
