Description:
- Ornamental plumb bob, with geometrical bull type shape.
- It keeps its original brass nut, with the fixed head and the string.
- The body of the weight has the shape of a torus, that is to say, it is a specific type of toroid whose surface of revolution is generated by a circumference that revolves around a coplanar exterior straight line, or plainly.
- Its geometrical shape consists of two circumferences (torus), a smaller upper one and a larger lower one.
- It has a long, sharp point. The upper part of the head hooks the cord with a ring, which is very rare, and the nut is positioned at the top.
- No distinctive mark or contrast has been found that could provide information on where it was made, the maker,s details, or any other information.
- The plumb bob is probably made in southern Europe, with the possibility that its place of manufacture is in Spain.

Conservation and Damage:
- The plumb bob is in good condition, with some rubbing, both on the edges and edges, as well as on the faces.
- The quality of execution of the plumb bob is very good, both the casting and the turning of the weight and the nut.
- The casting of the Pesa has no imperfections.
- The golden colour has come off in several parts of the plumb bob.
- Very good and nice period patina is preserved on the whole Plumb bob.
