The Giant Galileo Thermometer is a captivating fusion of science and design, created to bring both function and visual interest into your space. Standing at an impressive 64cm, this decorative glass instrument features eleven carefully calibrated coloured spheres that rise and fall in response to temperature changes.
Inspired by the discoveries of Galileo Galilea, the thermometer operates on the principle that liquid density shifts as temperature varies. As the surrounding air warms or cools, the spheres gently move within the clear column, creating a constantly evolving display.
Features 11 hand-blown glass spheres for a precise and visually striking temperature display. Each sphere is tagged with a temperature indicator, allowing you to read the ambient temperature by identifying the lowest floating sphere in the upper cluster. With more spheres than standard designs, this piece offers greater sensitivity and a more detailed reading range.
Both decorative and functional, it serves as a striking statement piece for the home or office — a true conversation starter that combines elegance with scientific curiosity.
