Scarce Shorter & Mason Free Standing Weather Station with damage.
Designed by Kenneth Grange
Hard to find mid century item by much acclaimed industrial designer Sir Kenneth Grange. Superb looking weather station with barometer and temperature dials in black and blue with zinc coated? rims. The solid wood pill shape base appears to be either teak or zebrano. Marked clearly to the base as shown.
As shown one of the slightly concave glass lenses has obvious damage and so is no longer airtight leaving the barometer dial ineffective. The temperature dial is undamaged and is working. The metal rims display with light age related tarnish but this does nothing to spoil. The wooden case is in very good order. An iconic piece, one of my personal design faves!
