A reinterpretation of the well-known SÖRENSEN storm glass, designed by Peter Jessen for DELITE and handcrafted in Denmark.Encased in a delicate housing made of brushed stainless steel is a glass filled with a camphor-alcohol solution, which reacts sensitively to fluctuations in temperature and air pressure and forms crystalline structures. These structures can be used to predict the weather for the next one to two days.The use of storm glasses in seafaring has been known since around 1750. Charles Darwin, who sailed the world's oceans aboard the HMS BEAGLE under Captain Fitzroy from 1831 - 1836, was the most famous user of this unique instrument.Nowadays, much more reliable instruments such as barometers are used on board, but this delicate instrument is certainly suitable as a high-quality, decorative gift. A matching rosewood gift box (item no. 5508-105) is available separately. Use and interpretationFor optimal use, the storm glass should be hung in a cool room. Crystal formation occurs with a delay (for the next 24 to 48 hours) and should not be understood as an exact weather forecast. In stable weather conditions, the liquid usually remains clear, while cloudiness, flakes or crystals indicate possible changes in the weather. Examples from the enclosed interpretation table:Clear liquid – stable weatherCloudy liquid – humid, windy weatherCrystals at the bottom – risk of frostFlaky structures – change in weather likelyThreads in the liquid – windy weather The storm glass is supplied in a cardboard box and can be placed freestanding or hung using the supplied wall bracket.

An ideal gift and a unique meteorological instrument: The storm glass from the Danish lamp manufacturer E.S. SØRENSEN. The use of storm glasses of this type has been known in seafaring since around 1750. Charles Darwin, who sailed the world's oceans under Captain Fitzroy from 1831 - 1836 on the HMS BEAGLE, was the most famous user of this ingenious weather forecasting device.Approximately 120 years later, Danish designer Stig Larsen found such a weather glass in the Hebrides and developed from it this aesthetically highly successful, simple meteorological instrument for predicting severe weather and storms.Usage and interpretation:  For optimal use, the storm glass should hang in a cool room. Crystal formation occurs with a delay (for the next 24 to 48 hours) and should not be understood as an exact weather forecast. In stable weather conditions, the liquid usually remains clear, while cloudiness, flakes, or crystals indicate possible weather changes. Examples from the enclosed interpretation table:    Clear liquid – steady weather    Cloudy liquid – damp, windy weather    Crystals at the bottom – risk of frost    Flaky structures – weather change likely    Threads in the liquid – windy weatherThe high-quality storm glass consists of a heavy metal body with a glass cylinder and comes with a matching holder. It is available in polished brass, polished stainless steel, or brushed stainless steel.
