An elegant early 20th century Danish wall barometer and thermometer, crafted in carved wood with Art Nouveau influence. The piece is marked by Cornelius Knudsen of København (Copenhagen), a noted maker of meteorological instruments.
This striking weather station features both a barometer and an alcohol thermometer, with atmospheric readings in Danish including “Storm,” “Regn,” “Foranderligt,” “Smukt,” and “Meget Smukt.” The thermometer scale shows both Réaumur and Celsius readings. The wood frame is beautifully sculpted with stylised floral and geometric motifs, and the overall design is both decorative and functional.
Condition:
In good working order, there is a chip on the top but it doesn't detract from the overall appearance too much.
Dimensions:
Height: 19.25" (49 cm)
Width (widest point): approx. 8.3" (21 cm)
A beautiful and atmospheric piece of Danish design that would suit a cottagecore, antique, or bohemian interior.
