French 19th Century Gold Gilt Barometer

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
A fabulous French gold-gilt barometer from the beginning of the 19th century. This early instrument of meteorology has been adorned with an extraordinary wreath crest with carved laurel leaves, a plane, saw, and measuring sticks. The face has hand-painted numbers, compass rose, and lettering with a brilliant blue background. A smart addition to any space, this lustrous gold gilt antique elevates a room’s status to the next echelon of style. The barometer is no longer in working order and is now admired as a decorative object. Make sure to check out all of the photographs to get a closer look at this great Louis XVI style piece.
