A good example of an aneroid barometer / thermometer dating from the late 19th Century. It is cased in a brass bulkhead style mount with glass covering the face and the dial is marked with the maker's name "S.Lanyon. Portsea". The white face has a traditional barometer dial from 28" to 31" and a black arrow pointer which reads the pressure and a brass arrow which can be adjusted from the screw in the middle to mark the current pressure and read the change. There is also a glass thermometer below reading in centigrade and Fahrenheit. There is a brass ring in the top of the case for hanging.
It is in good condition for its age. The glass is clean and has no major surface scratches. The face is clean and bright with no damages. The brass case has tarnished over time and has been lightly polished to retain its natural aged patina and displays very nicely. There are some small marks, light surface scratches and small dinks but nothing detrimental. It appears to be in working order and the temperature and pressure are reading accurately.
