Vintage barometer with wonderful face and visible springs
I have to start this description by saying that I don’t know if this object works, because I’m also not so familiar with barometers full-stop. It looks like a large silver clock and has feet and a carrying ring at the top. The beautiful printed face says in transation Storm, Rain or wind (in abbreviation), Variable, Good weather (again in abbreviation) and finally Very dry. The printed face has a cut-out hole in the centre to reveal the mechanism in the interior. Like I said, I am not sure if this works but it is such a beautiful object I’m not sure that that matters. Plus we now have weather apps, which are probably almost as accurate…
