Early Ebony & Brass 12″ Level
Intricately Decorated Brass Top Plate • Floral Vine Motif • Marked “Owen Jones” • Working Vial
A beautiful and early ebony & brass 12″ level, featuring an unusually intricate brass top plate with decorative engraving. The top plate includes what appears to be floral vine ornamentation along with the name “Owen Jones”—a detail that adds both character and historical intrigue. Levels with this degree of embellishment are far from common and often trace back to high‑end makers or special‑order pieces.
The vial is wet and working, and the ebony body retains its classic deep color. As expected for a tool of this age, the level shows the common toolbox dings, but nothing that detracts from its presence or function.
