Masterly Crafted w. Edelweiss Flowers Swiss Black Forest Barometer & Thermometer

About the Item

Top museum quality carved Swiss barometer / weather station This antique barometer is not only about the actuality of the weather, it is also a true work of art and a real pleasure to look at. The attention to detail is incredible and it must have taken a true craftsman weeks rather than days to design and finish the carved frame alone. At a later stage, the handcrafted barometer (in German) and the thermometer (in Celsius & Fahrenheit) were integrated. Notice how the Edelweiss Flowers are growing up against a ruïn-like building and each individual brick is finely and realistically carved. This barometer is in excellent and in perfect working condition. like the day it was made. Again great value for money and delivery from our store to your door is free. Maximum height x width x depth: 23.5 x 9.5 x 2 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings on 1stdibs by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.
