Description:
- Incomplete plumb bob for the construction of the second half of the 19th century, with solid iron weight and without preserving the nut.
- The body of the weight is cylindrical and conical, 16,2 cm long, 4,8 cm in diameter and 1,376 gr.
- It has a very good and beautiful patina throughout the plumb bob. The quality of the iron casting, and the execution of the Plumb, is very good.
- Along the body it has several channels of subtle depth, achieving a harmonious overall effect.
- The localized pins are made with a punch, which has a die at its tip.
- The number '6' corresponds to the size of the weight, while of the three initials 'B', 'Y' and 'N', we have not found any data that can provide us with information.
- The fact that a plumb bob has some distinctive mark or contrast, different from its size number, is a very scarce detail and of great importance for the interest of the plumb bob.
- The plumb bob is probably made in southern Europe.
Conservation and damage:
- The plumb bob is in a good state of conservation, with the weight having several blows and rubbing, both on the edges and faces.
- In our opinion, the foundry of the Pesa, presents a very small coquera that rather, seems a blow.
- The Plumb bob has the wear and tear of its time.
Comments:
- Both the measurements and the weight are approximate.
- Very interesting as a collector's item and as a decorative element.
- Because it is inevitable the differences of tonalities between photos and reality, it is necessary to bear 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.
- The data provided here are not contrasted personal opinions.
