A Ryga mechanical thermometer with a circular dial , featuring a design typical of the interwar period. The case is molded in red-brown marbled Bakelite, a material emblematic of the Art Deco era, with an elegant dark red veining. The dial displays a temperature range of -20 to +60 °C, with the needle pivoting around a central radiating graphic motif. The inscription "Precision Guaranteed" appears at the bottom of the dial. On the back, a folding metal stand allows the thermometer to be positioned at an angle, and the inscription "SYSTEM G" is visible within the molding. A beautiful decorative object, at once scientific, decorative, and typical of period instruments.
