History. Formed by La Caille, 1752, from stars between Columba and Eridanus. It is sometimes called Cæla Sculptoris, the Sculptor’s Tool and Scalptorium.

Influence. It has been said to give artistic taste and inclination, religious feeling, and fondness for astronomy, architecture and engraving. ^[1]

Allen

Caelum or Scalptorium, the Burin or Graving-Tool, sometimes incorrectly written Cela sculptoria, is the French Burin, the Italian Bulino, and the German Grabstichel.

It was formed by La Caille from stars between Columba and Eridanus, directly south of the Sceptrum Brandenburgicum; Gould now assigns to it twenty-eight components, of magnitudes from four to seven. ^[1]
