Rare 19th C Toleware Antique Moisture Measure
Rare 19th Century Toleware Antique Moisture Measure for Wool
A very intact and working rare antique moisture measure, used to test the humidity of water content in wool in order to arrive at a purchasing price. A small cage door opens in the bas3e so you can place a wad of wool inside which is then measured for the water content by the two fixed thermometers either side. The thermometers are mounted onto milk glass that says, Difference Between Dry & Wet Bulbs allowed by Cotton Cloth Factories Act. A fabulous, rare survivor from the English wool trade.
