Antique Hand Carved Black Forest Barometer, Flowers ans Nesting Birds Sculptures
About the Item
Large and wonderful, Swiss Black Forest barometer with thermometer.
This mother nature inspired, charming and beautifully hand-carved barometer displays the quality of the craftsmanship of Swiss Black Forest artisans around the turn of the century (1890-1910). It is beyond our comprehension how someone managed to perfectly handcarve this large and extremely sculptural barometer out of one piece of wood. if it were all flat then you could possibly understand how they would go about creating this work of art, but it isn't flat at all. It is carved all the way through, with considerable depth, with various marvelous leafs & flowers, with a ribbon and bear medaillon at the bottom and even with two nesting birds with a full nest just below the top. And the patina could not be any better either. We'd be surprised if you ever found someone who can still create this level of quality. Both the barometer (marked W. Ecker, Luzern) and the thermometer are in perfect working order and in excellent condition. Apart from a few old repairs to some of the leafs and flowers this striking and marvelous antique is in very good condition. It will look beautiful on your wall and quality antiques of this style and elegance will never fail to impress.
