A Tribute to Africa

The CL Companion Africa binoculars are the perfect companion for any trip to Africa. Inspired by the vibrant colours of this Continent, the armouring is an elegant dark brown colour and an exclusive, handcrafted bag made from waxed canvas protects the binoculars whilst out and about. A comfortable, leather carrying-strap ensures the binoculars are to hand all the time. Every pair of CL Companion Africa binoculars also comes with an exclusive certificate signed by Carina Schiestl-Swarovski, Chairwoman of the Executive Board.
