Vintage Wooden Surveying Tripod

A beautifully crafted vintage surveyor’s tripod, made of solid wood and metal hardware with a stunning aged patina. This heavy-duty tripod was originally used to support surveying or optical instruments such as theodolites or levels — precision tools used by engineers, architects, and land surveyors during the mid-20th century.

It features folding wooden legs with steel fittings and pointed ends, providing excellent stability on uneven terrain. The design allows it to fold compactly for easy storage and transport. The piece combines functionality with exceptional craftsmanship, making it ideal both as a collectible engineering relic and as a decorative stand for lamps, globes, cameras, or sculptures.

Good vintage condition with authentic wear and patina consistent with age and use. All metal joints and clamps are intact and functional. A few scratches and signs of aging add to its authentic industrial charm.
