A magnificent 20th century banjo-form wall barometer and thermometer, executed in richly grained solid oak with exceptionally detailed hand-carved decoration. This large and elegant Victorian weather station combines scientific craftsmanship with refined decorative woodworking, making it both a functional instrument and a striking wall display piece.
