Description:
- Construction plumb bob from the first half of the 20th century, with a solid bronze weight, and without preserving the nut.
- The body of the weight is in the shape of a cylinder and cone, 7,2 cm. high and 3,2 cm. in diameter, with a threaded head.
- The thread is small in size and diameter, with a small thread and pitch.
- On the top of the head there is a fluted band, which gives it an elegant and harmonious touch.
- Normally this mark corresponds to the weight of the sinker, but this is not the case, as the weight of the sinker does not coincide with the mark.
- The fact that a plumb bob has a distinctive mark, mark or contrast, other than the number of its size, is a very rare detail and of great importance for the interest of the plumb bob.
- The plumb bob was probably made in southern Europe.
Conservation and damage:
- The plumb bob is in a good state of preservation, although the weight has many, but very small knocks and scratches.
- The plumb bob retains a very good and beautiful patina throughout.
- The quality of the bronze casting and the execution of the plumb bob is good.
- The Plumb bob shows wear typical of it's age.
Comments:
