Stick barometers
Mahogany Mercury Barometer
Signed, A. Peduzzi, 51 Spear Street,
Manchester Circa 1790
stick barometer
Fine four dial barometer. Main dial 10". The
quality of these earlier "Banjo" shaped is
not always perceptable but close
inspection reveals the finer engraving,
superior cast bezels and quiet elegance.
When held the surprising weight belies the
merit of the materials used.
