Product Description

CHARLES DARWIN FRAMED DOCUMENT

Charles Darwin (1809 – 1882) was an English naturalist, eminent as a collector andgeologist, who proposed and provided scientific evidence that all species of life have evolved over time from common ancestors through the process he called natural selection. The fact that evolution occurs became accepted by the scientific community and the general public in his lifetime, and now forms the basis of modern evolutionary theory. His five-year voyage on the HMS Beagle established him as a geologist whose observations and theories were published and made him famous as a popular author. His 1859 book "On the Origin of Species" established evolution by common descent as the dominant scientific explanation of diversification in nature.

WEEMS & PLATH STORM GLASS BRASS

$169.00

This mysterious weather predictor has been used since 1750; Admiral Fitzroy relied on the Stormglass aboard the HMS Beagle during his historic voyage with Darwin in 1831. After 250 years, no one really knows how it works, but the appearance of the crystals in the glass indicates changes in the weather Å cold and stormy, warmer, frost, rain, or fair and dry. The sealed glass chamber that holds the crystals is housed in a beautifully- crafted cylinder of brass. It can be displayed freestanding or attached to a wall using the optional mounting hook. Also available in chrome.
