My husband and I came across this at an auction in North Eastern North Carolina and had to purchase it just to find out what in the heck it is. It appears to be made out of brass, the top ring has the signs of the Zodiac etched into it. The globe lifts to expose the multiple “holders” inside. There is an old sticker at the bottom that reads “Made in Germany”. If anyone has any information what this item is or where we could possibly obtain additional information, it will be much appreciated! :unsure:
