This astrolabe was made in 1236 in Cairo and is signed by Abd al-Karim al-Asturlabi (‘the Astrolabist’!) It’s finely decorated with inlays and engravings – the different colours of the metals help bring the scenes to life. The designs on the reverse represent the constellations. Although some astrolabes could be used in the palm of your hand, this one is quite large – 33cm in diameter. It also bears the names of three royal patrons, marking the significance of astrolabes during the medieval period. Astrolabes were the smartphones of their day, able to help tell the time, navigate and cast horoscopes – find out how they work via the link in our bio!
