On either side of the thermometer is a rose; at the bottom runs a border of flowers and leaves. The ogive shape with stepped shoulders keeps the line narrow and high. The reddish-brown wood carries the carving; the brass bezel and the white thermometer scale provide light accents. Prefer not to wait? This piece is also directly for sale via Buy now.
