Vasart/Strathearn bar tools with weights F001 to F020

Mostly bar-tools. Very little is known about this group, many pieces are marked England on the metal parts and in some cases “The Lassman Company” is marked. The metalwork was delivered to the Vasart works where the pieces were assembled by Vasart staff. Pieces could appear with either a Vasart or a Strathearn weight, more information needed.
