Fitzroy Storm Glass Mounting Plaque

The Perfect Gift For Weather Buffs

How this storm glass really works is a mystery, but it is believed that electromagnetic changes in weather patterns activate the crystals inside; the sealed-glass chamber fills with crystals when air pressure decreases. Predicts the weather 24-28 hours out. Framed in lacquered solid polished-brass case; can stand or wall mount. Wood Mounting Plaque has etched-brass plate that explains storm-glass dynamics. The instrument is named after famed meteorologist Admiral Fitzroy, who used a storm glass in 1750 on a historic voyage with Charles Darwin.
