About this product

This 14-inch Galileo thermometer from Lily's Home is a hand-blown glass cylinder holding five colored glass floats. As the room temperature changes, the floats rise or sink, and the lowest floating tag shows the temperature, per the classic Galileo design. The tags are engraved and gold-plated, reading from 64°F to 80°F. The liquid inside the cylinder and floats is described as a non-toxic inert oil-hydrocarbon mixture similar to mineral oil.

Why We Like It

It's a working bit of 17th-century physics that doubles as a slow, colorful display on a shelf or desk. People always ask how it works.
