I received this astrolabe in a timely manner and in good working order. All its mechanisms function as designed and the inscriptions are legible. I look forward to using this piece for astronomical study and literary inspiration. Also, Maria is a courteous seller who maintains contact with her customers to make sure items are received and undamaged. If anyone should happen to be interested in this kind of memorabilia and art, then this is the place to come to. Otherwise, keep shopping and don't forget to look at the stars.
