AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful mechanical precision instrument from the renowned German brand Barigo. This classic tabletop weather station combines three analogue measuring instruments under one transparent acrylic glass dome.

The compact and ingenious design is an absolute eye-catcher in any interior and a favorite among enthusiasts of maritime and vintage instruments.

The instrument is built on three levels:
Top: Barometer for measuring air pressure (in hPa/millibar). The refined mechanism with the double bellows is directly visible at the top.
Middle: Thermometer for indoor temperature (in °C).
Bottom: Hygrometer for relative humidity (in %).

By manually turning the plastic dome, the black index needle can be aligned with the barometer needle to accurately follow changes in air pressure.
