The Piece
A sleek desktop weather station by Airguide Instrument Co. (Chicago), c. 1958–1965, pairing a thermometer, aneroid barometer, and hygrometer in a warm teak case on a floating brushed-brass plinth. The speckled teal panel and gold trim capture the optimistic, atomic-era look—scientific utility with living-room polish.
Design & Construction
→ Form & Style:
Three domed glass dials with cream faces and gilt bezels set in a rectilinear teak frame; teal “terrazzo” laminate ground divided by gilt bands; minimal typography and a low, cantilevered brass base. It reads like a tiny piece of modern architecture.
→ Material:
Solid teak housing; brass-plated bezels and base; printed laminate panel; glass crystals. Thermometer and hygrometer marked Germany—period-correct imported movements Airguide commonly used.
Condition Notes
Light, honest oxidation at the bezels and gentle surface wear to brass base; glass domes clear; dials clean and legible. Presents beautifully and photographs exceptionally well.
Placement & Styling
Perfect on a credenza, bookshelf, or executive desk; pairs naturally with other teak/brass accessories and mid-century ceramics. A sculptural, working slice of 1960s design.
Every piece is packed with professional-grade materials: multiple foam layers, double-boxing, directional and fragile handling labels. For large furniture we use custom timber crating. We photograph packing before dispatch and can provide images on request.
White-glove delivery is complimentary within 100 miles of Reno, NV. National shipping quotes provided at checkout. All shipments are photographed and documented. Damage claims must be filed with the carrier; we provide all documentation needed to support your claim.
Local pickup is available at Viridian HQ (Reno, NV) with 2–4 days notice. Contact us to arrange. Private viewings also available.
All antique and vintage items are sold as described and all sales are final. Each listing includes detailed condition notes and photographs so you can make a fully informed decision. We encourage buyers to ask questions — about condition, dimensions, finish, provenance — before purchasing.
Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
