BAROMETER
BY BERGE OF LONDON
BAR101
|
M. (Matthew) Berge recorded working in 1800 (died 1819) was an optical, mathematical and philosphical instrument maker at 199 Piccadilly. He took over the business of Jesse Ramsden in Piccadilly when Ramsden died in 1800. Berge made stick and marine barometers and some are signed "Berge London, late Ramsden". He was, no doubt, trading on the very high reputation that Ramsden had built up over the years |
