Think it's called a Mercury switch. Spring expands and contracts and the Mercury shifts completing the circuit.
Haven't seen a mercury stat in the wild in a long time. And I've replaced hundreds of stats.

Different mom's different tolerances.

As someone else said, “The mercury does not expand/contract to activate these. It only acts as a switch”

I bet they changed it, but I am guessing that they sent the first file instead of the finished file.

We had veneer covered tables in the 70s at our house. All affordable tables are this way.

exactly. setting the temperature higher tips the vial to one side, and actually rising temperature tips it back to the other side. it will find its equilibrium point when set temp and measured temp are equal.
