FAQs

A stick barometer is a wall-mounted scientific instrument developed in the late seventeenth century that measures atmospheric pressure using a mercury-filled glass tube enclosed within a narrow wooden case.

Traditional stick barometers feature cases crafted from figured hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, combined with glass capillary tubes, brass mounts, and printed or engraved register plates.

Authentic Georgian stick barometers typically exhibit book-matched timber veneers, hand-engraved brass spandrels or plates, mercury glass capillary tubes, and a square or turned cistern cover at the base.

A stick barometer is best mounted vertically on a narrow wall, in a hallway, or integrated into a gallery wall within a study or library to serve as a focal point.

Keep the barometer securely fixed upright on a sturdy wall in a climate-controlled room away from direct heat and sunlight, and avoid tilting or laying the casing flat to prevent mercury displacement.
