"Louis XVI Barometer Thermometer In Gilded Wood. 19th Century."
Beautiful model of a very richly carved and gilded barometer, this elegant model whose case is very 18th century if we judge by the "patina" of the back is with neoclassical ornamentation, with in particular very beautiful work on the laurel leaves, flowers and pompom trimmings, we appreciate the great finesse of the details and the original gilding. The dial is signed by the Passement house in Versailles, the thermometer works, the barometer system needs to be revised. Hollow inscription on the back with date and initial as well as an old label. 19th century work with some wear and small losses. Dimensions: Height: 105 cm Width: 37 cm
