An ideal gift and a fine meteorological instrument: The DARWIN storm glass from the danish manufacturer SÖRENSEN. The use of this type of barometer has been known in the maritimeindustry since ca. 1750.

From it, he developed this aesthetic exceptionally successful meteorological instrument for predicting heavy weather and storms. For optimal use, keep the storm glass in a cool room, on board or in your home.
