Conant home and garden instruments combine practical weather monitoring with decorative outdoor design. Made by Weems & Plath, the Conant line includes the Vermont, Décor and Jeffersonian collections, with instruments suited for gardens, patios, porches and outdoor living spaces.

The Vermont Collection features traditional living-finish brass and copper instruments, including dial thermometers, weather stations, comfortmeters and rain gauges. The Décor Collection offers coordinating instruments in finishes such as bronze patina and satin nickel. Jeffersonian products create a modular outdoor display using clocks, drum thermometers, rain gauges, wind vanes and compatible mounting systems.

Many Conant finishes are intended to develop character naturally as they are exposed to the environment. Whether you need an easy-to-read outdoor thermometer, a decorative rain gauge or a complete garden weather display, Conant instruments provide a polished alternative to ordinary plastic outdoor equipment.
