A recognizable maritime gift for an anniversary, farewell, or special achievement.

The storm glass is a traditional way to predict weather changes and is at its best when predicting storm weather in the next 24 to 48 hours. The glass is approximately 145 mm high and filled with a liquid in which fern-like crystals form. This storm glass is packed in a wooden gift box and comes with a mount in brass on stainless steel, polished stainless steel, or brushed stainless steel; it can be either placed or hung. Place it in a cool spot, such as a north-facing window or on board, and check it daily alongside the barometer. Optionally, a personalized text on a plate can be provided.

How does a storm glass work?
The storm glass is a traditional way to forecast weather changes. Users have known for generations that it works; exactly how it works is quite magical, with liquid and crystals that form.

How far in advance does the storm glass predict the weather?
The storm glass is at its most effective when announcing storm weather in the coming 24 to 48 hours. Check it at the same time every day, and you will quickly learn to read the glass. We do recommend using a barometer alongside it for more certainty on board.

Where is the best place to put the storm glass?
In a cool place, such as a north-facing window or on board a vessel. Avoid direct sunlight and the vicinity of a heater.

Can I hang the storm glass or stand it up?
Both. The glass is approximately 145 mm high and comes in a mount, allowing you to stand it up or hang it. It is supplied in a wooden box.

What versions are available?
There are three finishes: polished and lacquered brass on stainless steel, polished stainless steel (chrome), and brushed stainless steel (matte chrome).
