The latest two iterations in my ongoing search for perfect pieces of stone fruit
of the sort where balls

Perfect Form, Satisfying Old Fat Pencil Shaped Brass Plumb Bob first edition 1906 The latest two iterations inI love an old plumb just as an object (and they also always make me think of the model of French physicist J. B. L. Foucault's 1851 pendulum in the rotunda of the National Museum of History in Washington DC, which I visited frequently as was fascinated by as a child) and this to my eye is about as beautiful as they come. Solid brass I believe, beautiful form, great patina, satisfying to hold and to just set, or hang, somewhere. 6 7 8 l x 1 d, weights
