Thermometer - Bone - Decorative specimen

Decoratieve cylindervormige barometer uit de 19e eeuw, vervaardigd uit been en gemonteerd op een rijkelijk gedecoreerde voet. Het object toont fijn handwerk met concentrische decoratie en is voorzien van nauwkeurige schaalverdeling in zwart. Opvallend is het gebruik van been in plaats van ivoor — zichtbaar aan de typische zwarte puntjes van het mergbeen, die bij ivoor ontbreken. Let op: Het object bevat echter geen werkend mechanisme of functionele componenten en is dan ook volledig bedoeld als curiositeit of pronkstuk, uit de 19e eeuw. Datering: 19e eeuw Stroming / Periode: Victoriaans Materiaal: Been Afmetingen: Hoogte: 23 cm Gewicht: 364 g Land van herkomst: Europa Verpakking en verzending Wij zorgen voor een zorgvuldige en duurzame verpakking, zodat uw aankoop veilig en verantwoord wordt verzonden.

Thermometer - Bone - Decorative specimen

Decorative cylindrical barometer from the 19th century, made of ivory and mounted on an elaborately decorated foot. The object displays fine craftsmanship with concentric decoration and is equipped with an accurate black scale. Notably, it uses ivory instead of bone — visible through the typical black dots of the marrow bone, which are absent in ivory.

Note: The object, however, does not contain a working mechanism or functional components and is therefore entirely intended as a curiosity or showcase piece, from the 19th century.
