Antique Banjo Barometer with Clock and Thermometer

This item is an antique or vintage banjo-shaped weather station, comprising a barometer, clock, and thermometer, all housed within a single wooden case. The case appears to be made of a dark-stained hardwood, possibly mahogany or walnut, showcasing a rich, warm tone. Its distinct banjo or ‘stick’ shape is characteristic of traditional barometers, with a decorative carved pediment at the top, adding an elegant touch. From top to bottom, the piece features a vertical thermometer with a mercury (or alcohol-based) column, indicating temperature. Below this, a circular clock with a white face and Roman or Arabic numerals (difficult to discern clearly) displays the time. Further down, the largest circular dial is a barometer, marked with weather indications such as 'CHANGEABLE,' 'FAIR,' and 'STORM,' with a central hand for pressure readings. At the very bottom, a smaller, circular dial, likely a hygrometer (to measure humidity) or a second thermometer, completes the ensemble. The metal bezels around the dials appear to be brass or a similar polished metal, showing a potential patina consistent with age. No obvious major damage like cracks or significant chips in the wood are visible, although minor surface wear or scratches may be present, typical of an aged piece. The overall craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced, yet well-finished, decorative and functional instrument from the late 19th or early 20th century. Visible quality indicators include the uniform finish of the wood and the clear delineation of the instrument dials. No specific maker's marks or signatures are discernible from the image.
