GORGEOUS ANTIQUE GILTWOOD BAROMETER WITH CARVED EAGLE & FRENCH RIBBONS This is a beautiful antique barometer case that dates around the late 19th century to the early 20th century. It is obviously missing its original barometer, but I’m sure that it can be replaced with either a newer one or an older one. The case is in very good condition but it does have one crack on the ribbon on the base. Its gilt is worn from age as expected, and the wear exposes a red wash over the gesso. It measures about 40″ high by 16″ wide. This case is worth the wait to find just the right barometer to fit it! The opening on the barometer measures 9″ wide in diameter at the back and there is a 1/2″ lip on the outer carving. A beautiful and quality made piece! A wonderful antique piece to add to your collection or home decor! The item “GORGEOUS ANTIQUE GILTWOOD BAROMETER CASE WITH CARVED EAGLE & FRENCH RIBBONS” is in sale since Saturday, March 26, 2016.
