AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This object is a planimeter, an instrument used for measuring surfaces on maps and drawings. It is often stored in a protective box with red velvet or fabric lining.
Function: Determining the area of a region by tracing the outline.
Parts: Often consists of a measuring wheel, a tracer arm and a counter arm.
The gold-colored logo in the middle is from In-GUT, an importer or distributor of technical measuring instruments.
The code 9580-00 in the top right corner is probably a specific model or serial number from the manufacturer (such as Ott or Coradi), who such instruments were often sold through importers like In-GUT.
Instrument: The planimeter itself is mainly made of metal, probably an alloy such as silver, stainless steel, or another metal. The large wheels on the sides have a serrated surface (serration) for grip.
Case: The case is likely made of wood, covered with black leather or imitation leather.
Lining: The inside of the case is lined with red velvet or a similar fabric.
