This is a quite old design, often used on french horns and rotary cornets in the 1830s and 40s. Less often on low brass.

Having less curves airflow should be better compared to standard rotary horns,

Nice that somebody else saw that posting too!

The seller is a Dane, and the tuba is posted for sale locally as well.

This is so cool, reminds me of Schagerl Spyder trumpet design.
