This Galileo Thermometer from Bits and Pieces is made of a glass cylinder and contains clear liquid with several glass vessels containing liquid of different density. As the temperature changes, the multi-colored balls rise and fall within the liquid-filled thermostatic tube.

Our desktop weather station combines a Galileo thermometer, quartz clock, barometer and hygrometer, all housed in an elegant solid-wood cabinet. Weather buffs can track daily trends with these quality instruments, then watch the floaters in the glass tube to determine the current temperature. 6" wide x 2" deep x 12" tall. Requires 1 AG13 button cell battery, included.

Great product, read to get clock working

Great little item, to get the clock to work . Gentle push from back and slide clock out of the front. On the side there is a small adjustment wheel with a plastic retainer. Slide retainer out from behind knob/wheel, turn knob to adjust the time then press knob in to start clock. Hope this helps many others that state the clock doesn't work.

Lacking crystals in 2nd chamber

My husband picked this out as his Christmas gift. Received in a timely manner in good condition, just as pictured. Only problem, there are no crystals in the second chamber. Allowed it to sit as instructions stated, and in a temperature controlled room, but just clear liquid. Unfortunatley, it will be returned. It is petite and handsomely made, just lacking in one of its selling points.

Additional instructions would be helpful.

Did not come with any instructions on how to change battery or to set the clock. Apparently other buyers had the same issues. Unit is too small to be easily readable, but is decorative.
