Galileo Thermometer with 7 Coloured Balls Height 37 cm Borosilicate Glass Metal Tags Large Glass Decoration for Living Room and Study
You already have the maximum available quantity in your cart.
The Galileo thermometer with 7 coloured balls is the largest and most striking version of this classic glass decoration. The tall cylinder, measuring 37 cm, is made of borosilicate glass and within the clear liquid, seven coloured glass balls move slowly. Beneath each ball hangs a metal tag with the temperature in degrees Celsius. Depending on which balls float at the top and which have sunk to the bottom, you can gauge the approximate temperature in the room. Due to its size, it will become the focal point on a sideboard, mantelpiece, in a library, or at a reception.
The principle of the thermometer is based on the discovery by physicist Galileo Galilei, which states that the density of a liquid changes with temperature. When the room warms up, the liquid thins, and the balls sink one by one to the bottom. When it cools down, the liquid thickens and the balls rise back to the surface. The current value is indicated by the lowest ball of the upper group. The tall cylinder is set on a glass base, requires no batteries or electricity for its function, and operates completely silently.
Each glass ball is filled with liquid of a different colour, allowing the individual temperature readings to be distinguished even from a distance. The metal tags with numbers are clearly readable through the transparent walls of the cylinder. The seven balls in the tall cylinder create a colourful composition that changes throughout the day according to temperature, providing a continually new perspective. At the same time, it visually demonstrates the relationship between temperature and liquid density, which will be appreciated by students, teachers, and curious children.

Place the thermometer on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight, radiators, and draughty areas to ensure it shows the true air temperature. When all the balls float at the surface, it is cooler in the room than indicated by the lowest tag. When all sink to the bottom, it is warmer than the highest value. Wipe the glass with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth without aggressive chemicals. Always carry the tall cylinder with both hands and place it in a way that it cannot be easily knocked over.
The Galileo thermometer with 7 balls at a height of 37 cm is a representative decoration that combines an interesting physical phenomenon with an elegant appearance. The large glass cylinder enlivens the living room, study, waiting room, and corporate spaces. It will attract design enthusiasts, scientists, and lovers of original accessories.
