19th Century Antique Inlaid Mahogany Banjo or Wheel Barometer w/ Thermometer

Description

Description:
19th Century Antique Inlaid Mahogany Banjo or Wheel Barometer with Thermometer
Provenance:  Northeast Auctions, Portsmouth, NH
Size:  Length is a little over 38 inches
Condition:  The barometer is beautiful, but not in working condition.  I have no idea what it would take to restore it.
Shipping:  You can pick up the barometer or you can arrange to have it shipped.
Because there is still mercury in the tubes, that may be an issue with having it shipped.
I live about 25 minutes northwest of Springfield, MA. About two hours from Boston and three hours from New York City.  If you want to arrange shipping, one possibility is the Package Store near me.  You can contact them at

.  They will give you a quote over the phone and I will deliver the barometer to them for shipping.  I have worked with them extensively and they are excellent.
Please note that I have listed a number of quality 17th-19th century antiques--most with prices that are lower than I paid for them at auction.  Please check them out.
*Also, I will be traveling in Europe from July 22 until August 8, 2021.  If you purchase it then, I will ship it immediately when I return.
