Weather Glass- Weather Vane (248)-Forecast your own weather.. Weather Glass
Sailors of clipper ships had to rely on weatherglasses like this one to warn of approaching storms on the high seas. In those days they were state-of-the-art barometric pressure gauges.
Today, they're a fun and attractive way to predict weather changes. The rise and fall of coloured water forecasts the weather up to 24 hours ahead - a rise means a storm is approaching, a fall means smooth sailing ahead. Made from mouth-blown leaded glass and metal, complete with wall mount and blue colouring. 31cms high.
