Frequently Asked Questions
How does a storm glass work?
The sealed glass holds a solution that grows and dissolves crystals as conditions change, mainly temperature. Traditionally the crystal shapes are read as a guide to the coming weather, so treat it as a decorative curiosity rather than a forecast.
Does it light up?
Yes. The base has a light with 7 adjustable colours, so it can also be used as a small lamp.
How is it powered?
The light runs from a USB cable. The crystals themselves need no power at all.
How big is it?
The glass sphere is 12 cm across and sits on a wooden base measuring 9 cm x 5.5 cm.
Who would it suit as a gift?
It suits adults who like science or unusual decor, and is a thoughtful choice for birthdays, Christmas, Mother’s Day or a retirement.

bought this for my grandson Alfie who’s nine and he hasn’t stopped staring at it since the postie delivered it. He turns the colours on every evening before bed and tells me what the weather’s going to do tomorrow, bless him. Cracking little gift.

Spot on. The crystals inside shift and grow depending on the pressure and temperature, so you get a lovely slow display that hints at what’s coming. Fab on the desk, and the seven light colours make it a proper little lamp too.
