Glass Tubes

By glasstubes2012, 2 December, 2012
Description

I have a gold cardboard tube about 2 1/2 inches long with 6 glass tubes inside. The are about 2 inches long and 1mm with in center thinning out at each end with colored glass balls. Each tube is different in color.

I am curious as to what they are. I have spent some time googling and searching glass sites.

Re: Glass Tubes

I googled the Galileo thermometers and they are different. Sorry for the poor picture. These tubes are tiny.
