This antique French barometer was made by Derogy, 33 – 31 Quai de L’Horloge in Paris. Both the maker and the address dates this piece to 1830 – 1850. The housing is made of hand carved wood, with original grey-ish paint and gilding. The inner workings have been serviced by our clock maker and are sound. The thermometer is no longer functional as it has a piece of the glass missing. Notice the circular bottom of this thermometer and the temperature indications, which are Glace at 0 degrees, Tempere and Bain Chaud among others that are very hard to read. The condition of the barometer is good for its age: there is plent of discoloration on the thermometer background, as cleaning it will possibly erase all the writing. There are also numerous small chips to the wood carving consistent with a piece this old and intricate. The Quai de L’Horloge is one of the famous clock maker’s areas on the Ile de France, number 69 is still Breguet. All in all a fantastic piece of history. Measurements are: 28 1/2″ by 10 1/2″ and 3 1/4 deep. The item “Antique 19th Century French Derogy Barometer” is in sale since Sunday, October 31, 2021.
