The barometer has been checked for pressure and works well.

The barometer face is in very clean condition and both the hands/indicator pointers are clean without corrosion, the glass mounted one also moves freely.

The thermometer is of a mercury type, so great care when cleaning the item, it is mounted on a silvered brass plate with the temperature numerals etched and blackened to stand out clearly. It is of the Fahrenheit scale.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Art Deco desk weather stations from this period feature geometric silhouettes, stepped architectural wings, and clean typography. They frequently combine horological instruments with aneroid barometers and spirit thermometers within a single composite case.

Craftsmen during the 1920s and 1930s favoured natural carved stones such as onyx, marble, and alabaster, often accented with lapis lazuli or slate. Metal bezels and fittings were typically executed in chrome plate, nickel, or polished brass.

Authentic pieces generally feature hand-cut stone components with period-appropriate assembly marks, original mechanical movements (often Swiss or English made), and characteristic numerals typical of early 20th-century graphic design.

Position the piece as a focal accent on a modern executive desk, mantelpiece, or tailored sideboard top. Its structured geometric lines complement modern minimalist aesthetic schemes as well as classic dark wood study spaces.

Dust the stone housing gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid water or chemical cleaners that can dull natural onyx. Keep internal clockwork and aneroid barometer mechanisms dry and have them serviced periodically by a qualified horologist.
