Important: The age of the piece is determined approximately. Any and all statements by me as to the authenticity, attribution, description, date, age, provenance, title, or condition of the work constitute my judgment and opinion only. The product is in working order, however, the barometer is not sold as a measuring instrument, but as a unique antique artifact and interior item.
