A fine Scottish George III mahogany slender bowfronted mercury stick barometer. Alexander Adie, Edinburgh, early 19th century. With gadrooned dome surmount and slender silvered vernier scale calibrated in barometric inches and annotated Stormy, RAIN, Change, FAIR and Very Dry beneath signature A. Adie, Edinburgh to upper margin, behind bowed glass within reeded surround above trunk with the same bowed profile and moulded border over vase shaped cistern cover with gadroon carved waist and underside applied with a foliate bud finial with level adjustment square beneath, 99cm (39ins) high. Alexander Adie is recorded in Goodison, Nicholas English Barometers 1680-1860 as born 1774 and apprenticed to his uncle the eminent Scottish instrument maker John Miller in 1789. In 1804 his uncle took him into partnership under the name of Miller and Adie, the business continued until after Miller’s death in 1815. Adie was particularly interested in meteorological instruments and is perhaps best known as the inventor of the Sympiesometer in 1818. In recognition of his work he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1819. He was appointed optician to William IV and later Queen Victoria and took one of his sons, John, into partnership in 1835. Two of his other sons set up businesses; Robert in Liverpool and Patrick in London. Unfortunately John Adie was prone to ‘Fits of Despondency’ which resulted in him shooting himself in 1857, Alexander Adie died the following year -no doubt expediated by the stress of his son’s demise. The current lot is an earlier example of perhaps Adie’s most attractive design of domestic barometer. The classic elegant simplicity of this model endured as subsequent versions were supplied by his sons. The instrument has survived in good original, unrestored condition however needs some attention in order to bring it back to working condition.
