11 inch Galileo Thermometer with Glass Globe Barometer Feature

  • Wood base with with an 11 inch glass Galileo Thermometer, Glass barometer with blue coloring powder.
  • The Galileo Thermometer is 11.4 inch tall with 5 colorfull floats each with gold plated tag represents temperatures from 64ºF to 80ºF
  • Glass Barometer globe with frosted world map with blue coloring poweder, plastic syringe and tube - All that needed to put the colored water in the globe.
  • Instructions included.
  • Approximately 9 inches long and 12 inches high
A lovely conversation starter and a fun example of early scientific measurement, this Galileo thermometer and Glass Barometer set from Lily's Home engages the eye while monitoring the weather. Designed for approximate interpretation of temperature and general prediction of fair or foul weather, the set features glass instruments that rely on the principles of buoyancy and air pressure for their function. In the thermometer, the brightly colored internal spheres rise and lower with fluctuations in temperature and corresponding density. The ball-shaped barometer shifts liquid to and from its curved spout in response to changes in the air pressure. Both pieces are beautifully shaped. A wooden base makes the set easily displayable on desk or bookshelf. Delightful for gift giving, the unit measures 9 inches long and stands 12 inches high.

Ambient Weather Galileo Thermometer and Glass Globe Fluid Barometer Review


See more picture


Ambient Weather Galileo Thermometer and Glass Globe Fluid Barometer Feature

  • The Galileo thermometer consists of a sealed glass tube that is filled with water and several floating bubbles. The bubbles are glass spheres filled with a colored liquid mixture. Attached to each bubble is a little metal tag that indicates a temperature.
  • The bubbles are calibrated by adding a certain amount of fluid to them so that they have the exact same density. So, after the weighted tags are attached to the bubbles.
  • As the temperature of the air outside the thermometer changes, so does the temperature of the water surrounding the bubbles. As the temperature of the water changes, it either expands or contracts, thereby changing its density.
  • The concept that 'decreasing atmospheric pressure predicts stormy weather' was postulated by Lucien Vidie -- and it's the basis for a weather prediction device called a storm glass or liquid barometer.
  • A narrow spout connects to the body below the water level and rises above the water level, where it is open to the atmosphere.
Overall height: 11.4 inches tall
Barometer height: 5.9 inches
Number of glass balls: 5
Glass Galileo thermometer range: 64ºF – 80ºF
Temperature is determined by lowest floating bulb
Glass barometer globe with frosted world map
Low level of liquid in spout = high pressure and fair weather
High level of liquid in the spout = deteriorating weather
Attractive wood base

Tendency Barometer Admiral Fitzroy Storm Glass Hygrometer Historical Weather Instrument Review


See more picture


Tendency Barometer Admiral Fitzroy Storm Glass Hygrometer Historical Weather Instrument Feature

  • Mahogany Wood with Curved Glass Front
  • Tendency Barometer
  • Storm Glass Barometer
  • Liquid Thermometer & Dial Hygrometer
  • Measures 20 tall and 6.7 wide and is made in Belgium
The Tendency Barometer Storm Glass combines two traditional weather instruments with a hygrometer for a truly unique way to keep track of the weather. The wood frame on this historical weather instrument is stained in a rich mahogany finish, with a curved glass case. A tendency barometer, an Admiral Fitzroy Storm Glass and a hygrometer are mounted on a brass colored aluminum faceplate for a dazzling effect. Both attractive and functional, this weather instrument will be perfect in any living space. It measures 20" tall and 6.7" wide. The thermometer measures in both Celsius and Fahrenheit and the barometer measures in millibars/ hPa. An absolutely beautiful presentation piece that will last for generations. How to Read the Tendency Barometer The Tendency Barometer consists of two liquid filled tubes mounted side by side, one is an open ended U-shape tube filled with non-mercury red fluid, and the other is a closed thermometer tube with blue fluid. When the red and blue fluid are at the same level, this means the weather is changing. When the red fluid level is lower than the blue fluid, the weather conditions will be fair (rising air pressure pushes the red fluid down in the tube). When the red fluid is higher than the blue fluid, the weather condition will be stormy (falling air pressure allows the red fluid to move up the tube).
