Description from the seller
Antique Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) Weather Station - Barometer & Thermometer - Carved Wood - c. 1900
Authentic Art Nouveau / Jugendstil wall weather station, crafted in Germany or Austria-Hungary at the beginning of the 20th century (circa 1900-1915).
This elegant piece features a beautifully hand-carved solid wood case with characteristic organic, flowing lines and a floral rosette at the top, quintessential for the Jugendstil period.
Thermometer: Features a dual scale in Celsius and Réaumur (marked "R C"), mounted on a white porcelain/enamel-style plate.
Barometer: An open-center aneroid mechanism that allows you to see the intricate internal brass works. The dial is printed in German (Sturm, Regen, Veränderlich, Schön Wetter, Beständig).
Markings: The reverse side bears the stamp "Gesetzlich geschützt" (Protected by law/Patented) and the model number 1001 carved into the wood.
Dimensions:
Height: 49 cm
Maximum Width: 19 cm
Condition Report (Please read carefully):
The item is in found, original condition and shows a wonderful patina.
Mechanism: The aneroid barometer has been tested and is functional (the needle reacts to pressure changes).
Missing Parts: Please note that the front protective glass and the manual "reference" needle (pointer) are missing.
Woodwork: Excellent condition with no cracks or major damage, only minor signs of age-related wear.
This is a high-quality collector's item, perfect for a restoration project or as a decorative statement piece for lovers of Art Nouveau design.
