A good and elegant French graphometer by Antoine Joseph “MEURAND à Paris”.
Age: 1750-1775
Dimension: 20cm (8”), 10cm (4”) radius.
This beautiful brass instrument is in very good condition throughout, with fixed sights and silvered compass dial.
The peculiarity is in the “M” decoration, recalling the Meurand name, instead of the more classical symmetrical floral design.
