Product Description

What is a Goethe Weather Ball Barometer and how do I read it?

This device predicts barometric weather changes by observing the rise and fall of liquid within the spout of a vented glass vessel. A low water level in the spout suggests “high pressure”, representing fair weather. A high water level in the spout suggests “low pressure” and forecasts poor weather conditions. While the storm glass will not indicate exact barometric pressure in numerical values, it is still regarded as an accurate monitor of air pressure changes. PLEASE NOTE: the stated height is only an approximation. This item is finished with a hand process that creates a varying finished height, which may be slightly higher or shorter than the stated height.

How do I set it up?

This device arrives empty and you must fill it with distilled water. We suggest using food coloring to change the color of the water. It comes with a small hose and syringe. Pull the hose out of packaging and stretch it to make it straight. Once you have straightened it as best as possible, you have to snake it down the neck of the glass. It is tricky but the only way to fill it! Once the hose is inside the main body, turn it upside down and use the syringe to fill it. Don't take the hose out, just disconnect the syringe from the hose. Fill it a little less than halfway. If you fail to get results you may have not put the right amount of liquid in it.

Very nice product

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 23, 2022

Color: WITHOUT Frosted Globe ImprintVerified Purchase

This is a lovely little item. It is a 1700s-era barometer that works by the difference in air pressure between the central chamber and the narrow tube that is open at the top. It is quite attractive. The instructions provided are clear. The necessary equipment to fill it with water is also provided in the package. It came securely packed. It is glass and somewhat delicate (I had no issues), and the company provides contact information in case it gets broken in the mail, which I thought was a very classy and customer oriented thing to do. Highly recommend. Great value for the price.

TRACK YOUR ACHEY BONES WITH THE WEATHER BALL

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 23, 2021

Color: WITHOUT Frosted Globe ImprintVerified Purchase

I have purchased at least 8 barometric weather balls for myself, family and friends....
Why? Sometimes our own bodies can predict the weather better than the meteriologists.
I found it interesting that my bones would ache at certain tmes. I'd tell my husband it was going to rain or snow and he would laugh...then it would. So I got my first weather ball many years ago, and when the pressure was low, the liquid in the ball would go up, sometimes overflowing. So, I have purchased a couple of these and a few other brands. The ones that have a spillover tray on the bottom are good so you don't have to worry about the water going on your furniture. Otherwise, put a small saucer underneath, because it will eventually go over the top Some brands have markings to help you read it for rain/snow.

It's an Old School barometer!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 22, 2020

Color: WITHOUT Frosted Globe ImprintVerified Purchase

After first getting delivered the wrong item (essential oils?) instead of this item, it finally arrived a day later. The barometer was well packaged against breakage in a box with styrofoam around the glass. There was also a syringe and plastic tube. I didn't realize when I purchased this that I would have to fill the barometer myself. I used the syringe and tubing to fill the vessel with water with red food dye. Not sure if there is an optimal level to fill the glass but I filled it about 1/3 of the way. Its raining outside today and the liquid in the stem is slightly lower than in the vessel. I guess that means it's working! If you are looking for a barometer to tell you the exact air pressure, this is not the one to get. This barometer is more of a conversation piece and will give you a relative gauge of the air pressure.

I like how the water moves up and down based on ...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 15, 2018

Color: WITHOUT Frosted Globe ImprintVerified Purchase

I bought this as a replacement because I had one before that broke on the side tube (not from this seller). This fit perfectly in the stand for the one I was replacing. Was packaged very well! The hardest part is getting the tube down the tube..... Sounds weird but there is a syringe that has a tube- that tube goes down the side glass tube on the glass globe- that is how you get the water into the barometer.
I like how the water moves up and down based on pressure. It is fragile since it is glass but it is made well with no sharp edges. I will absolutely buy again if this one breaks like my last one. (My last one from a different seller broke because someone played ball in the house and knocked it over.)

Not Wonderful

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 23, 2022

Color: WITHOUT Frosted Globe ImprintVerified Purchase

I suppose one could say the physics of Barometers are pretty solid: air pressure versus a body of water or fluid. So regardless of the type you get, you should be fine. This one has no markings, so you are guestimating whether you are in a high pressure (stable weather) or low pressure (unstable weather). It looks nice but was a pain to get the mini hose inside it and fiddling with filling it upside down sorta wasn't a perfect experience either. If I had to do it over again, I'd either get an app (LoL) or a Barometer that has numeric values so you can tell exactly what is going on in the event you are trying to predict headaches or rain, etc. I'm pretty sure this one will be in the donation pile eventually. We tried.

Didn't come filled with the colored water. I bought 2 of these as gifts and was a little embarrassed that they're nothing but glass bottles and you have to fill them yourself.
