AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Storm/ thunder glass on a wooden board with a brass drip tray; the operation is as follows: at high air pressure (nice weather) the liquid level in the spout is pressed downward, and at low air pressure (bad weather, rain) the level is pushed upward in the spout. With approaching thunderstorm, the liquid will rise and come out of the spout, hence the drip tray. The thunder glass is 22.5 cm high and 9 cm wide. The empty storm glass can be filled via the spout; it is best to use distilled water to prevent lime deposits in the glass. Very decorative. — Ships with tracking.
