AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful, well-functioning barometer with lovely inlay work.
This aneroid barometer, with a thick (5 cm) solid housing and wall mounting, is typical of a late-19th-century period. Period of production: circa 1880. Barometers like these were popular in households and on ships. The decorative wooden backplate and the dial with markings such as "RAIN", "CHANGE", "FAIR" point to a design style that was common in the Victorian and Edwardian era in England.
Typical characteristics
• Mechanical internals without liquid (i.e., no mercury).
Elegant wooden mounting — solid mahogany
• Dial with weather indicators in English, indicating English production.
• Scale in inches of mercury (inHg) — a unit that was mainly used in English-speaking countries.

Will be well packed, shipped with tracking.
