Description:
- The pericos are small plumb bobs that were carried by the master builders in their pockets.
- They were used to check the vertical, using them from a distance, and that is why they rarely had a nut.
- Even so, some pericoids have a nut, which allows them to be used as a support.
- Solid bronze plumb bob, with threaded head and steel tip.
- The thread is of medium size and diameter, with a small thread and pitch. The head is knurled for a better grip.
- The body of the plumb bob is marked '00'.
- It is very important to be able to identify the maker, the place where it was made and other details, if the object has a distinctive mark or contrast.
- The plumb bob was probably made in southern Europe.

Conservation and Damage:
- The plumb bob is in a very good state of preservation, with some knocks and rubbing, both on the edges and on the edges.
- A very good and beautiful patina has been preserved throughout the plumb bob.
- The Plumb bob shows wear 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.
