Description:
- Plumb bob built in the first half of the 20th century, with a solid bronze weight, and without conserving the nut.
- The body of the weight is cone-shaped, 7.6 cm. high and 5.8 cm. in diameter, with a threaded head.
- Thread of small size and diameter, with small thread and pitch.
- The head we think is not his. It is quite possible that the real head was lost, and a screw was put in its place.
- The head is made of iron, and is finished in the form of a nut, in order to facilitate the tightening of the head.
- No distinctive mark or contrast has been found that could provide information about the place where it was made, the maker's details, or any other information.
- The plumb bob is probably made in southern Europe.
Preservation and damage:
- The plumb bob is in a good state of preservation, although the weight has several small knocks and scratches.
- The quality of the bronze casting and the execution of the plumb bob is good.
- There is a very good and nice patina all over the plumb bob.
- It has a chipped tip due to it's use.
- The plumb bob shows wear and tear typical of it's age.

Comments:
- Both the Measurements and the Weight are approximate.
- Very interesting as a collector's item and as a decorative element.
- The tones of the colours in the photos are not equal to the tones of the real colours.
- The object for sale is the one that corresponds to the photos. The description is not a detailed description of the object.
- The data provided here are personal opinions and are not verified.
