The desk stand has general scratches, marks and tarnishing to the whole reflective of the age of the piece. The engravings are worn.

There are large noticeable chips to the base of the glass jars, also with sizeable chips to the bodies. The central chamber stick is of white metal and is not hallmarked, and therefore could possibly be associated. There is one screw missing from the base.

Ref. 1. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube page 14. Henry Wynne is recorded by Banfield as working near the Sugar Loaf, Chancery Lane, London 1654-1709 and is thought to have been the first English maker to have made and sold barometers in any number. A series of plugged holes to the case behind the register plates may indicate that the plates may well be replacements however the general form and design of the case would suggest a date of around 1680.
