A chondrometer is an instrument used to ascertain the quality of grain. The bucket holds an exact volume of grain, which is weighed by moving the scale, and comparison with other grains can then be made. This chondrometer was bought in a sale of furniture near Derby. It was made by Dring & Fage, of London. The chondrometer is inscribed 'Lbs per Bushel' on a plate on the scale, and the case is inscribed 'Corn Balance' on the inside surface of the lid.
