Storm Cloud: A Decorative Weather Predictor
In the 1860s, Admiral Robert Fitzroy popularized the storm glass, a fascinating tool once believed to predict storms at sea. The Storm Cloud is a modern take on this historical device, offering a mesmerizing way to observe how weather can influence the world around us.
While not as precise as a barometer, the sealed glass cloud contains a special liquid that forms delicate crystal patterns in response to changing elements. From swirling frost-like formations to clear liquid skies, the Storm Cloud is both a decorative conversation piece and a curious reminder of how people once looked to nature to forecast the weather.
