The crystals inside actually began to shift and grow feathery branches two days before a downpour—my kids check it every morning now. It’s a fun way to bring a bit of 1860s science into our kitchen windowsill.

I’ve had it on my desk for a week and the crystals are already changing shape with the weather—way more interesting than I expected. It’s a great conversation starter and looks right at home by the window.

I was skeptical the crystals would actually change with the weather, but after a week on my south-facing windowsill, I’ve seen them rearrange before two rain showers. It’s a genuinely cool conversation piece with a fascinating piece of 1860’s naval history behind it.
