5 items Piccolo Galileo Thermometer 28cm The Piccolo indoor Galileo Thermometer stands at 28cm tall. A beautiful thermometer with multi coloured temperature reading balls.Contains 5 internal temperature globes with temperature reading Tags which are gold coloured and read temperatures between 18-26C.History of the Galileo The physicist Galilio Galilei (1564-1642) discovered that density of liquid changes according to temperature. This principle is used within the Galileo Thermometer, Depending on the temperature, the glass bulbs in the thermometer either rise or fall. The actual temperature is shown by the lowest of the upper floating glass coloured bulbs.These Piccolo Galileo's are top quality and not to be confused with cheaper imitations. Made from blown glass in Germany they really do make a perfect gift that will be admired- certainly not another dust collector.

He placed several glass globes filled with a certain liquid within a glass cylinder filled with another liquid. On doing this he found that the globes rose or fell over time due to the temperature.This galileo works on the principle that the density of a liquid changes as temperatures change. each internal globe is exactly weighted to rise or fall as the temperature changes and thus can be used to accurately tell the temperature. Each globe has a brass tag that hangs from underneath that has this temperature displayed on it.The globe that hangs lowest in the top group of globes with be showing the exact temperature. These beautiful items not only make great temperature reading devices but also make very decorative gifts.Measures 30cm in HeightContains five multi coloured globesBlack ash wood surroundBrass temperature reading tags.Informational box supplied Galileo Thermometer 18cm 4 multi bulb This Galileo Thermometer stands at 18cm tall.
