Discover the timeless charm of scientific discovery with this Galileo Thermometer - a beautifully made object that blends education, design and quiet fascination.
Inspired by Galileo Galilei’s 17th-century work on temperature and density, this classic glass thermometer measures ambient temperature through a series of coloured, floating glass bulbs. As the temperature changes, the bulbs rise and fall, offering a gentle, visual indication of the room’s warmth — a captivating process to watch and a talking point in any space.
Standing at 18cm tall, this Galileo thermometer makes a thoughtful decorative accent for shelves, desks or sideboards, equally suited to a study, living space or child’s bedroom. Crafted with Nauticalia’s signature appreciation for traditional nautical instruments and timeless design, it’s both informative and beautifully ornamental.
A lovely educational gift for curious minds of all ages, this piece encourages an appreciation for science, craftsmanship and the simple pleasure of objects that invite you to pause and observe.
