Hello KC

  I thought I would receive an email when a reply has been posted (I'll have to double check my settings)

I have 'brass' in my post title - but "bronze" may be more accurate

several images attached - there are no actual marking on the piece itself

the only text is: FAHRENHEIT GLA & REAUMUR CE at the glass

0n a fun side note - the sliver mercury is accurate at showing the room's temperature

thank you for your detective work

Hello Forum.

  I have only found this item on ONE website using a reverse image search (a French website call proantic dot com).
Has anyone seen one of these in real life in the past ?

Any additional info beyond the French website's description would be great

Thank You
