Frequently Asked Questions
How does a storm glass show the weather?
The crystals in the sealed liquid change shape and clarity as conditions around the glass change, temperature in particular. Traditionally clear liquid suggests settled weather and cloudy or feathery crystals suggest a change, so treat it as a visual indicator rather than a replacement for a forecast.
What is it made of and how big is it?
It is a diamond-shaped glass containing crystals, set on a wooden base. It measures 6 cm x 11 cm, so it fits easily on a mantelpiece, desk or bookshelf.
Where should I put it?
It is designed as an indoor piece. Keep it somewhere stable and away from radiators or strong direct sun, as local heat changes the crystals more than the outdoor weather does.
Who would like it as a gift?
It suits adults who enjoy weather, science or elegant design. It is a thoughtful choice for a birthday, Christmas, Mother’s Day or a corporate gift.

Looks lovely on the windowsill but the box arrived a good week after the date I was given, and no real explanation why. The instructions are a tiny folded leaflet that doesn’t say much about how to read the crystals, so I ended up googling it. Fine now it’s here, just a bit of a faff getting started.

bought this for my dad’s birthday as he’s always checking the sky before he heads out with the dog. Looks smart on his bookshelf and the crystals do change, feathery on cloudy days and clearer when it’s bright. Not going to replace the BBC forecast, but it’s a lovely talking point.

Third thing I’ve ordered from here and the packing was decent again. Glass feels solid, and it sits nicely on the mantelpiece. Slightly smaller than I pictured, mind, but no complaints really.

Got this for my grandson Oliver, he’s ten and mad on weather. His face lit up when he opened it and he’s checked it every morning since. Lovely little thing.
Callum Rees –
Does what it says. The liquid inside reacts to changes in air pressure and temperature, so the crystals grow and dissolve through the day, which is oddly hypnotic to watch. Took a day or two to settle after unboxing, so don’t panic if it looks cloudy at first. Knocked a star off only because it’s a bit pricey for what it is.

Gift for my grandson and he was chuffed to bits! He loves watching the crystals change with the weather, and it’s taken pride of place on his windowsill.
David Brown –
Quite a clever bit of kit! Fascinating to see how the crystals react to changes in weather. It looks quite striking, too, which is a bonus as it sits in my study. Certainly adds a touch of intrigue and elegance.
