Catalog Description: C.1970, Swiss, Modern version of an Armillary Sphere, with a revolving or annular time dial with separate minutes and hours, below the sphere. Armillary spheres were developed by the ancient Greeks for use as teaching tools. This Copernican model has the sun at the center and the earth and assorted planets revolving around it. (Planets are hidden from view by the month/calendar ring in this foto). The band going around the sphere at an angle to the equator represents the Zodiac, and names of the 12 signs are engraved on it. This is a very well made 8-day instrument, and was expensive when new. Height 17 inches |
