Galileo Thermometer - 17 inch tall

Galileo Thermometer - This fascinating, functional instrument is the point at which science meets art. Four hundred years ago Galileo discovered that specifically weighted floating bubbles would predictably rise or sink in a liquid as the temperature of that liquid changed. These decorative glass reproductions of Galileo's discovery have glass floats precisely weighted in .006 gram increments suspended in a clear, environmentally safe, nontoxic liquid. Simply read the tag on the lowest floating bubble to read the temperature.

Our 17 inch tall thermometer have Eleven glass spheres that rise and fall inside the thermometer to accurately indicate room temperature from 60° to 96° Fahrenheit. Expertly crafted of mouth-blown glass with 24K gold-plated temperature medallions. For indoor use only.

Product is packed in a special care box to eliminate any possible breakage. One year warranty.

How to Read the Temperature: Simply read the tag on the lowest floating bubble to read the temperature - Each tag is marked in Fahrenheit on both side of the tags.
