Globes, telescopes, microscopes, and ancient scientific instruments are objects of extraordinary fascination, taking us back to an era of great geographical explorations and revolutionary discoveries. This section of Nowarc is a tribute to human curiosity and the history of science, a corner of the world ofantique trade where technical ingenuity blends with superb artisanal aesthetics.

An 700th-century celestial or terrestrial globe is not just a teaching object, but a work of art, with its hand-engraved and watercolored segments and its turned wooden base. Brass instruments such as sextants, compasses, astrolabes, or armillary spheres evoke adventurous sea voyages. Antique microscopes and telescopes, with their bodies of fine wood and polished brass, are sculptures that remind us of the birth of modern scientific thought. These objects were status symbols of culture and knowledge.
