This Victorian barometer dates from 1900 and is made of dark brown oak with a brass bezel and glass dial cover. The horizontally orientated case displays detailed carved birds on either side, extensive acanthus leaf scrollwork across the wide wooden body, and minor knocks and marks consistent with age and use. The silvered circular aneroid dial includes red and black weather indicators, a patterned centre, a blued steel pointer, a brass indicator hand, and a curved thermometer at the base marked in Fahrenheit. It measures 89 cm wide by 28 cm high by 12 cm deep. In a modern home, this piece suits a gentleman's library, study or hallway. It is designed to be hung securely on a wall, traditionally placed above a mantelpiece where the carved details and timber finish can be fully appreciated.

A Victorian aneroid barometer is a nineteenth-century scientific instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure without liquid, housed in a decorative timber case.

Victorian barometers typically featured solid oak, walnut, or mahogany cases with hand-carved detailing, brass bezel rings, and ceramic or silvered metal dials.

Authentic Victorian examples display hand-carved wooden motifs, natural timber patination, engraved pressure scales in English, and original glass covers over the dial mechanism.

Position the barometer as a wall feature on a neutral background, elevated above a console table or mantelpiece to highlight its carved timber details.

Dust the carved woodwork regularly using a dry soft-bristled brush, clean the glass dial cover with a microfiber cloth, and keep the object away from direct heat sources.
