French Cream Painted and Gilt Polychromed Directoire Barometer
P. F. Bollenbach Barometer and Thermometer, 20th Century
A stunning French-style cream-painted and gilt polychromed Directoire barometer, made in the USA in the 20th century. Standing 42 inches high, this elegant piece features a fluted ionic column with an inset mercury thermometer. The barometer's circular face, measuring 15 inches in diameter, is inscribed with classic detailing, showcasing the sophistication of Directoire style.
Barometers have been used for centuries to predict weather by measuring atmospheric pressure. High-pressure systems generally bring good weather, while low-pressure systems can indicate bad weather, including severe conditions like thunderstorms and hurricanes. While this model is a decorative display piece and not guaranteed to function accurately, it beautifully captures the historical significance and charm of traditional weather instruments.
This Directoire barometer is guaranteed to add authentic charm and warmth to your interior decor. Its cream-painted finish, combined with gilt polychrome accents, provides a timeless elegance that complements a variety of design styles. Whether displayed in a living room, study, or entryway, this piece serves as both a fascinating conversation starter and a beautiful decorative element. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this exquisite barometer, a perfect blend of historical allure and decorative sophistication.
