Description:
- The Object for sale is the one that corresponds with the photos, which in turn are complemented in this Description, with the objective of providing a better knowledge of the Object, and never being a detailed exposition of it.
- Complete plumb bob for the construction of the First Half of the XX Century, with solid bronze weight, 4.2 cm. high and 5.4 cm. in diameter, which has the shape of three superimposed cylinders with flat faces and the integrated head, conserving the wooden nut and having a new sanity placed on it.
- Probably the Plumb is made in the south of Europe.
- The Weight is perforated vertically, having made a greater cavity in its inferior part, which allows to pass the Cordura and that its knot is lodged in the mentioned cavity, and therefore integrated in the Weight.
- The Wooden Nut is perforated transversely. Its width of 5.4 cm. coincides with the diameter of the Weight, having a diameter of 3.8 cm. that allows the rolling of the Cordura with all ease.
- The quality of execution of the Plumb is very good, so much of the casting and turning of the Weight in yellow bronze, as of the turning of the wood nut, all this with simple and very good terminations.
- Neither in the Weight nor in the Nut has been located any distinctive, mark or contrast, that can provide data of the place in which it was manufactured, data of the manufacturer, as well as data of its characteristics.
Conservation and damage:
- The Plumb, considered globally, are in good condition, taking into account the following observations.
- This Plumb has been well treated, so that both the Weight and the Nut are preserved in very good condition, having both many, but very small blows and rubs, both on the edges and faces, all corresponding to a fairly careful use of the Plumb.
- The Walnut has been recently waxed, so it has obtained a nice final patina, while the Sanity is new.
- The Pesa casting has no imperfections, except for some small areas where the color copper dominates, which gives it tiny but beautiful coppery reflections to its already magnificent and attractive patina, a product of time.
Comments:
- It is rare to find complete plumbs with these characteristics.
- As much the Measures, like the Weight, are approximated.

- The object has the wear and tear of its time, as well as some stains. It has small flaws.
- The data provided here are non-contrasting personal opinions.
