FAQs

The stick barometer was developed in the late seventeenth century following Evangelista Torricellis invention of the mercury barometer, becoming a standard domestic weather-forecasting instrument throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Traditional stick barometers are constructed from solid hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or oak, housing a central glass tube filled with mercury alongside silvered brass or ivory register plates.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples feature hand-engraved lettering on silvered or ivory scales, original blown-glass tubes, period-appropriate timber oxidisation, and hand-carved decorative elements on the wooden casing.

A wall-mounted stick barometer functions effectively as a structural accent when installed in a narrow hallway, library alcove, or integrated within a gallery wall of framed botanical prints.

Keep the instrument strictly upright to avoid mercury spillage, position it away from direct heat sources to prevent the timber from splitting, and maintain the casing with microcrystalline wax.
