Overseas buyers, please note. This item is not for posting/shipping due to high mercury content which on tilting can hit either end and can cause breakage to the glass. Buyers, please collect this or can be delivered by the seller personally for an additional cost depending on your location. Alternatively, I can empty the mercury and send it overseas without the mercury which can be filled with locally procured mercury.
