Description:
- Plumb bob from the second half of the 20th century without a nut and, therefore, incomplete.
- The weight is 9.2 cm high, 2.3 cm in diameter and weighs 252 gr.
- The Weight is made of bronze, has a cylindrical shape and has grooves all over its body.
- The head has a brass thread and is shaped like a small cylinder.
- The thread is small in size and diameter, with a thread and a small pitch.
- On the base of the body of the plumb bob, we have located the distinctive no. 22, which corresponds to the size of the Weight. The badge is made with a die-cut punch.
- 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 plumb bob has several knocks and scratches, both on the edges and on the faces.
- There is a very good and beautiful patina all over the plumb bob, as well as traces of paint.
- The quality of the casting and the execution of the Weight is good.
- The Plumb bob shows wear typical of it
