Darwin may have stolen the show with this Theory of Evolution, but his shipmate Fitzroy had a few of his own interesting ideas up his sleeve. Developed during their journey on the H.M.S Beagle, this
teardrop storm glass is a barometer that can, supposedly,
forecast the weather.
Whilst this
hand-blown glass feature is a nice addition to any desk or mantelpiece in itself, this brilliant invention can see into the murky depths of the not-so-distant future. Specifically, the weather forecast. He probably didn’t quite foresee the fame that his shipmate was to have, but Fitzroy read the changes in the liquid within to predict the weather at sea on his infamous voyage with Darwin. And now you can carry the beacon of enlightenment to your friends, family and colleagues.
Ensure that no one ever leaves the house unarmed without an umbrella or sun cream as you foresee the forecast with this trusty tool. Watch as crystals chop and change when a storm brews on the horizon, and observe asyou become the weatherman of the office that you always aspired to be.
