1950s Shortland SB Aneroid Barometer and Thermometer In A Wood Surround

A beautiful 1950s Shortland SB Aneroid Barometer and Thermometer In A Wood Surround, with chrome coloured accents and decorated with a chrome stylised horseshoe.

The wood surround seems to be in the style of a horse tack breast plate and is designed for wall hanging.

The compensated circular aneroid barometer and thermometer are in very good condition, with no chips or cracks. They appear to be working but I’m not sure as to their accuracy. 

Approximate Dimensions

• Thermometer diameter:  6.8cm
• Barometer diameter: 10cm (4")
• Height of Wood surround: 26.4cm
• Maximum Width: 17.5cm
• Maximum depth: 3.7cm

A wonderful looking barometer and thermometer to complement any home décor but especially horse lovers!
