Galileo Wall-Mount Oak

Let the jewel-like sparkle of this sculptural Galileo Thermometer adorn your home while displaying the laws of thermodynamics. Galileo Galilei (1564 - 1642) invented the thermoscope, the world's first instrument indicating changes of temperature. Today, modern science has perfected a 400-year-old principle and created a work of art.

This 17" tall glass cylinder wall hanging Galileo is available with the ever-popular multi-color spheres in a oak frame. The five fluid-filled glass globes descend as temperature rises, and ascend as temperature falls. Each one represents a 4°F temperature increment.

You read the current temperature by looking at the lowest globe of those grouped at the top of the cylinder. Temperature Range: 64°F to 80°F. Dimensions of glass: 17 in. (43.1 cm) length, 2 in. (5.1 cm) diameter
