Walking around Portobello market I found a telescope under a pile of junk on a stall. It's made out of wood, black and golden metal and is about 1 meter hight. It stands on a wooden tripod. This object caught my eye because it reminded me a a similar telescope my grandpa used to have when I was a child.
The key words that came to my mind when I saw this object where vintage, adventure, voyage, world, wealth, museum. I could imagine this telescope in a explorer's town house office right next to a big wooden globe.
If this was exposed in a museum I think people would admire it and observe it in it's detail. They would try and guess the story behind it and who it belonged to.
