Fun and Functional! Highly Recommended! January 5, 2009
The "Multi-Colored Glass Galileo Thermometer" is a very good looking piece of equipment that is both functional and fun. We gave this 11" one to my father as a gift after he commented on the 14" one on my fireplace mantle.
Galileo discovered a liquid's density varies with temperature, causing the enclosed weighted glass globes to change position with changes in temperature. The lowest floating globe shows the temperature on a hanging tag.
A very cool thermometer and a great gift for those who like science!
Highly Recommended!

The Galileo thermometer is an interesting talking point in a school office and an opportunity for teaching chemistry. It arrived packed well and unbroken, although a place to display it must be chosen carefully because it is very fragile.
Very cute October 1, 2007

The galileo thermometer is pretty accurate and makes a beautiful piece in the living room. I have it on the fireplace mantle and you can see the color from across the room and tell the temperature. Wanted an art piece that had a second purpose, would recommend. I've given this as a gift and its been enjoyed by the recipient.
