It measures atmospheric pressure changes by the rise and fall of liquid in its spout, signaling upcoming weather shifts. Designed for wall mounting, it allows customization with colored water and requires placement in stable temperature conditions for optimal accuracy. Sized at 11” high and weighing just over 2 pounds, it blends old-world craftsmanship with practical functionality. ## Description Esschert Design TH31 “Thunder Glass” / Weather Glass Barometer with Cast Iron Filigree Holder and Pan. This beautiful and highly functional “Thunder Glass” / Weather Glass barometer is ready to be hung on your wall and predict the weather. Elegant hand-blown glass pitcher rests in a beautifully crafted filigree cast iron base with a durable antique brown finish. Shows weather changes by measuring atmospheric pressure and raising and lowering the liquid in the spout. Rising liquid indicates approaching cloud cover and possible precipitation; falling liquid indicates improving or clear weather. Fill glass halfway with water to allow the other half to be exposed to the atmosphere (distilled water will prevent water spot). Customize by adding your favorite food coloring to the liquid/water. Be sure to fill on a calm, sunny day since pressure is measured based on the internal pressure of the barometer at the time it was sealed. Hang in partial sun where temperature is constant; changes in water temperature will impact readings and heat can evaporate your liquid. **Please note: water will rise very quickly or even spill out into pan when heavy or potentially dangerous precipitation is expected. Filling Instructions: 1. Fill one pot or bucket with warm water and a second with cold water. 2. Submerge entire barometer in warm water. Keep barometer under water until you no longer see air bubbles being released. 3. Place one finger over spout before removing barometer from water. 4. Submerge barometer in cold water while still covering spout with your finger. Remove your finger to allow cold water to fill barometer until bubbles stop. 5. Repeat steps 1-4 until water settles 1” above spout. Don’t forget to seal spout with your finger each time you move barometer to new bucket. 6. Hang barometer allowing water to reach room temperature. 7. Empty spout until half full. 8. Add desired food coloring through spout. Dimensions: 5.5” long x 4.75” wide x 11” high. Weighs 2.02 pounds. Esschert "More Than A Design" Review: Pretty (and) functional!!! - Wife and I saw one of these while on vacation in the Caribbean. The inn keepers have it hanging on the wall near the outdoor dining area. I was fascinated by it. It’s beautiful, functional, with old world charm. Shortly after we got home I started searching online for it, lo and behold here it is on desertcart. I ordered it immediately. It just arrived today and we are so pleased. It is exactly like the one we saw on vacation! The cast iron is heavy. Well made. The glass is gorgeous and very delicate — almost weightless in your hand. We have it hanging on our back patio. Looking forward to seeing it react to the changing weather here in the SC Lowcountry. Edit: a followup edit after owning this for several months. We still love it and it’s a great conversation piece on our screened-in porch. It’s beautiful. I do have a complaint but I have a feeling this is user error. It seems to react more to temperature swings than it does barometric pressure. For example, in the morning the fluid will be low, but by the afternoon it will rise and spill out. This occurs every day, regardless of rain, to the extent that after a few days it is practically empty and I need to add more water. So, I am thinking, maybe this shouldn’t be located outdoors? Maybe it should be inside where the temperature is fairly constant? Review: Very attractive - So pretty and a unique piece. I bought one for each of my children for their homes. It works great and adds a lovely look on the wall. ## Features - Highly functional and decorative “Thunder Glass” barometer - Predicts weather with atmospheric pressure raising and lowering liquid in the spout - Beautifully crafted filigree cast iron base; ready to be hung on your wall - Falling liquid in spout indicates improving weather; rising indicates worsening weather/precipitation - Fill glass only halfway with water so other half is exposed to the atmosphere; be sure to fill on a calm, sunny day - Customize by adding your favorite color to water - Hang in partial sun where temperature is fairly constant - Please note: water can rise very quickly or even spill out into pan when heavy/potentially dangerous precipitation is expected - 5.5” long x 4.75” wide x 11” high; weighs 2.02 pounds ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00BAWQIH6 | | Additional Features | Barometer | | Are batteries included? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #265,062 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #20 in Barometers | | Brand | Esschert Design | | Brand Name | Esschert Design | | Color | Antique brown | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,460 Reviews | | Display Type | no display | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08714982022081 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 4.72"D x 5.51"W x 11.02"H | | Item Type Name | Esschert Design TH31 Thunder Glass / Weather Glass Barometer with Cast Iron Filigree Holder and Pan, Antique Brown | | Item Weight | 2.02 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Esschert Design USA | | Material | Cast iron, Glass | | Material Type | Cast iron, Glass | | Model | TH31 | | Part Number | TH31 | | Power Source | Solar Powered | | Recommended Uses For Product | Garden | | Sensor Technology | Mechanical | | Shape | Drop | | Special Feature | Barometer | | Specific Uses For Product | Pressure | | Style Name | Antique | | Upper Temperature Range | 120 Degrees Fahrenheit | ## Product Details - **Are Batteries Included:** No - **Brand:** Esschert Design - **Color:** Antique brown - **Material:** Cast iron, Glass - **Power Source:** Solar Powered - **Product Dimensions:** 4.72"D x 5.51"W x 11.02"H - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Garden - **Special Feature:** Barometer - **Specific Uses For Product:** Pressure - **Style:** Antique ## Images ![Esschert Design TH31 Thunder/Weather Glass Barometer with Cast Iron Filigree Holder and Overflow Pan, Antique Brown - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81wGCI+-n9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty (and) functional!!! *by D***. on May 12, 2020* Wife and I saw one of these while on vacation in the Caribbean.

I bought one for each of my children for their homes. It works great and adds a lovely look on the wall. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it *by R***M on March 22, 2026* I use about 50% sterile water and 50% alcohol to keep it fresh with some food coloring. I chose this one for the backing plate. It makes it look so much better very classy. ## Frequently Bought Together - Esschert Design TH31 Thunder/Weather Glass Barometer with Cast Iron Filigree Holder and Overflow Pan, Antique Brown - AcuRite 00795A2 Galileo Thermometer with Glass Globe Barometer, Barometer Set, Glass/Wood, 3 - Ambient Weather BA212 Wall Mounted Weather Station with Thermometer, Hygrometer, and Barometer - Cherry Finish --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8428499-esschert-design-th31-thunder-weather-glass-barometer-with-cast-iron](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8428499-esschert-design-th31-thunder-weather-glass-barometer-with-cast-iron) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-21*
