The Jeffersonian Rain Gauge is a practical instrument that can also serve as art or decor in your favorite outdoor space. The intriguing brass Jeffersonian rain gauge is a statement maker.
Inspired by Thomas Jefferson's affinity for invention, this unique device uses a float and lever design to measure up to 5" of rain in 1/5" increments. As rain fills the vial, the red ball rises, consequently causing the steel arm to climb up the 5" scale.
The brass Jeffersonian Rain Gauge includes a pressure treated wooden stake for ground installation and a hanger bolt for mounting on a deck or other desired location.
The Jeffersonian Rain Gauge is crafted from solid brass, glass, and stainless steel (glass vial should not be left out in freezing temperatures).
