Clues from nature have always been used to forecast the weather. Changes in atmospheric pressure too small for detection by human senses are clearly shown by the rise and fall of the water in the spout of our weather glass. High pressure forces water down (good weather coming). Low pressure allows water to rise (bad weather on the way). Elegantly curved glass, delicate scrollwork on metal bracket, and solid brass drip dish. A showpiece for any room in your house. 131/2"H, glass 101/2"H, 2 lb. Made in Europe.
