PLUMB BOB CONSTRUCTION. LARGE SIZE. IRON.

Description:
- Incomplete construction plumb bob from the first half of the 19th century, with a solid iron weight, 16.1 cm. high and 5.1 cm. in diameter, with a large size, difficult to find.
- It is a plumb bob for long ropes, that is to say, to take the vertical from great heights.
- The thread is medium in size and diameter, with a small thread and pitch.
- One side of the body of the weight has three initials: A A T. The initials normally indicate the name of the owner of the sinker.
- The localised hallmarks are made with a punch with the die on its tip.
- We have not found any data on the badges that could provide us with information.
- 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.
Preservation and damage:
- The thread is three-quarters of the way through and only engages in one-quarter of the thread, although it is sufficient for the head to attach to the body.
- The plumb bob is in a good state of preservation, due to the use it has had; the Weight has several knocks and scratches, both on the edges and edges, as well as on the faces, being more visible on the head, as it is made of brass.
- The plumb bob retains a very good and beautiful patina throughout. The quality of the iron casting and the execution of the plumb bob is very good.
- The Plumb bob shows wear typical of its age.

Comments:
- Both the Measurements, as well as the Weight, are approximate.

- The tones of the colours in the photos are not equal to the tones of the real colours.
