Conservation and damage:
- The Plumb bob is in good state of conservation, having the Weigh many, but very small blows and rubs, all corresponding to a quite careful use of the Plumb bob.

Comments:
- Both measurements and weight are approximate.
- Very interesting as a collector- Because it is inevitable the differences of tonalities between photos and reality, you must have in mind that the tones of the colours of the photos are not exactly equal to the tones of the real colours.
- The Plummet on sale is the one corresponding to the photos, which in turn are complemented in this Description, with the aim of providing a better knowledge of the Object, and never being a detailed exhibition of it.
