Description

Antique Negretti & Zambra compensated pocket barometer altimeter.
Negretti and Zambra was founded in 1850. The firm began by specialising primarily in barometers and thermometers, with a focus on models designed for taking deep sea and atmospheric measurements. The company would eventually be appointed opticians and scientific instrument makers to Her Majesty Queen Victoria, Prince Albert and King Edward VII, the Royal Observatory and the British Admiralty.
The barometer measures 50mm diameter excluding the loop. The gilt case is in lovely condition.
Revolving altitude scale upto 15,000 ft.
The barometer comes in its original Moroccan leather case.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland).
