About the Item
Dress a study, library, or living room wall with this elegant Louis XV style barometer, crafted in Paris, France, circa 1960. Square in format, the decorative weather instrument features its original hand-painted parchment dial, executed in fine Indian ink with French atmospheric inscriptions and a central engraving of a sailing ship surrounded by calibrated pressure markings in millibars. The gilt frame is richly sculpted with scrolling foliage, acanthus leaves, and shell motifs characteristic of the Rococo revival, all finished in a beautifully patinated gold tone. A protective glass panel shields the dial and mechanism, which is offered as a decorative item and not guaranteed for technical accuracy. This antique-inspired barometer presents in excellent condition commensurate with age and use and brings both whimsy and refinement to any interior. Dimensions: 16.5" W x 16.5" H.
