Description from the seller

Brom – German vintage meteorological station with barometer, hygrometer and thermometer – Made in Western Germany – circa 1960s–1970s

Elegant three-instrument wall meteorological station, branded Brom and bearing on the main dial the original text Made in Western Germany, confirming production in West Germany.

The object, presumably dating from the 1960s–1970s, is made with a shaped wooden support of elongated characteristic form, on which three analog instruments are mounted.

In the center is a wide aneroid barometer with a metallic dial finished in satin gold, featuring the atmospheric pressure scale and meteorological indications in Italian, including Gran secco, Variabile, Pioggia and Tempesta. The dial is crowned by a stylized wind rose and bears the Brom logo.

At the top is a analog hygrometer for measuring relative humidity, while the lower section houses a vertical thermometer graduated in degrees Celsius, mounted on a golden metal plate.

The wooden support has a warm brown finish, molded edges and a top hole for wall mounting.

Features:

* Brand: Brom (indicated on the dial)
* Origin: West Germany
* Period: 1949–1990, presumably the 1960s–1970s
* Type: wall meteorological station
* Instruments: aneroid barometer, hygrometer and thermometer
* Materials: wood, metal and glass
* Height: 66 cm
* Maximum width: 16 cm
* Depth: 4 cm

An interesting example of German domestic meteorological instrumentation from the twentieth century, with a technical and decorative character, ideal for a study, a library, or a collection of vintage instruments.
