The remarkable Precision Barometer (#P111) is rated at +/-1.0 millibar (or 0.03 inches) over its entire measuring scale. This accuracy is unheard-of for an instrument in this price range. The 6" dia. lacquered brass case houses a precision temperature-compensated movement, and the special knife-edge pointer minimizes parallax error when taking readings. Our most serious barometer in this price category. Range: 27.50-31.50 in., 931-1067 mb.

The Ross Tendency Barometer is mounted in an exquisitely crafted wood and curved glass case. A tribute to the famous Arctic and Antarctic explorer James Clark Ross (1800 -1862) discoverer of the magnetic North Pole. His ship, the Erebus, is pictured at the top of the instrument and a map of the Antarctic is pictured below.
The thermometer measures in both Celsius and Fahrenheit and the barometer measures in millibars/ hPa. The overall instrument measures 20 inches high by 6.7 inches wide and weighs 3 pounds. An absolutely beautiful presentation piece that will last for generations.
More Information
A Storm Glass was used first in the 1750’s to predict weather changes. The instrument was used by seamen, who mounted it on the mast of their ship. It was meant to be a storm warning instrument. Our observations tell us that the changes in the crystalline structure is triggered by changes in temperature and electrostatic charges. It is a pity that the changes in the crystals are too small indoors to use the instrument as a reliable forecaster. Still it is a mysterious and beautiful instrument that adds historic value.
This reproduction consists of hand blown hermetically sealed glass cylinder filled with camphor, alcohol and water. Changes in the weather caused changes in the crystals. When the weather was fine, the crystals settled at the bottom. When the weather was foul, the crystals rose to the top. The famed Admiral Fitzroy devised a set of rules for predicting weather based on the appearance of the crystals, which are printed on the mounting below the glass.
The instrument measures 12 inches high by 5 inches wide. The back is enclosed with a recessed hanger for easy flat hanging. The frame is dark oak colored

This elegant weather station (#L89-117) blends old and new technologies in interpret weather.
The water barometer, or storm glass, is of the type used since the 17th century to demonstrate variations in atmospheric pressure quickly and reliably. A low water level in the spout indicates high pressure and fair weather. The water rises in the spout (may spill over) in severe weather as pressure falls.
The thermometer/hygrometer measures temperature and humidity. If the needles cross in the darkened center area, you are in the comfort zone.
This international weather station features glassware from Taiwan and instrumentation from Germany mounted on a cherry finished ash stand made in Minnesota. Also available in Oak.
