Nicole & Capt., for Dent, London, England, man's split seconds pocket watch, 17+ jewels, stem wind, pin set, gilt plate movement with lever escapement, cut bimetallic balance, and gold timing screws in an 18 karat, yellow gold, snap back, hunting case with London hallmark, and date letter for the year 1865, Roman numeral, white enamel dial, blued steel spade and poker hands, serial #31743, 50mm, 119.7g TW.
CONDITION: CASE: Minor dings; Minor scratches on outer surface of case; Fine scratches on inner surface of case; Crown worn; Precious metal content marked. DIAL: Very good. HANDS: Very good. MOVEMENT PLATES: Minor scratches on plate; Minor scratches on winding wheels; Case clamp with a few minor patches of oxide. MOVEMENT FUNCTION: Running order (winds, sets and ticks). COMPLICATION FUNCTION: Functions properly. This watch uses Nicoles keyless winding, and also the firms snap back case, and eliminating the inner dome, resulting in a thinner, more fashionable watch. It is also interesting in its use of a mechanism a split seconds function more closely related to the original type, departing from the earlier design in that one must depress the button for each stop and start of the split hand. The two hands continuously run together as in a sweep seconds watch, and may be split at will by pushing a button in the band to time events lasting less than 60 seconds. Pressing the button a second time reunites the hands. The hands cannot be stopped and returned to zero, as they can in the modern chronograph. David Penney provides an excellent bit of historical information, as quoted in this excerpt from his website: "This term 'split-seconds' can be very confusing as most of the earliest simple chronographs, including Nicole's in the 1844 patent, were designed to have two concentric seconds hands moving as one. Pushing a pin in the watch band would stop one of the hands, leaving the other to rotate with the running of the watch. On releasing the pin the stopped hand would immediately catch up with the moving hand, neither of which could be returned to zero. Such chronograph work was, for the obvious reason, called split-seconds, but the term has since come to be universally used with the later, post 1871 meaning."

The salesman who sold our man the drum explained that a person who owned one of these 'Dong Son', was considered richer than a man who owned an elephant. With the drum he could communicate with the Gods and appeal for abundant rain. We find this to be a faithful copy of original designs exhibited in several Asian Art museums.

The "Opawa" was the first of three sister ships to be built for the company by Stephen's of Glasgow, being registered with Lloyd's in November 1876; the others were Piako and Wanganui. These three were the last sailing ships to be built specially for the company. She was an iron sailing ship of 1131 gross tons and her dimensions were 215 feet by 34 feet by 20 feet.

CONDITION: Wikipedia or any web-site on tea will explain the value of tea in the 1800s. Remember the Boston Tea Party took place when tea was a valuable commodity.

The one large box is rosewood veneer with MOP inlay and the octagonal lid box is fruitwood with multi colored wood veneer inlay. At the height of interest, these would have garnered around $400 each.

Globe; Joslin (Gilman), Boston, New Solar Telluric, Zodiac Circle, Cast Iron Base, 6" globe is dated 1851
CONDITION: this is Joslin's six inch globe on a special mount which demonstrates the relative motions of the earth and sun. In 1853 this device won a bronze medal at the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanic Association fair which stated that it was "very simple in construction, and highly useful for illustrating Geography and Astronomy in schools." The condition appears original and worn but still quite good. We found online information but no values, so our estimates are speculative. Height from base of stand to top of globe is 9 inches.

Set of Tiffany Sterling, Bamboo pattern - 1961, 40 piece service for 8 = 8 Forks, F2, 7 1/4", 8 Forks, SF, 5 3/4", 8, Teaspoon, TS, 5 3/4", 8 Knives including 6-full, hollow handle, #K1, 9.375", and 2 10", later version; 6 Demitasse spoon, DEM 4 1/4", four of which are still in original plastic protectors, 2 Salad Serving pair, walnut with sterling handles 10 3/4". In original light aqua zippered felt sales display from Gump's, San Francisco.
CONDITION: we see virtually no evidence of use. A stylish set, would be a shame to sell for silver value, around $1500. If you check silver replacements, and just take an average per piece replacement cost of $150, you get $6000 [six thousand]. For the demitasse spoons alone eBayers want $500. Lowest price we could find on individual pieces was around $79. And a set for 12 [check it out] is offered for $12,000 So our estimate takes all of this into account. All pieces are signed Tiffany & Co.

CONDITION: The heavy bell retains an old bright patina, and the brass dial with fancy numbers is signed "Damon" and "T & Co.". There is a new plywood base (not visible).

The patent referenced on the back plate was held by Lindauer for a simplified striking mechanism, which sadly does not correctly synchronize the Westminster chimes after the hour strikes, so the chimes often play the incorrect sequence at the various quarters. An empty small hole in the top handle may indicate that something, perhaps a hanger, is absent. Ht 12 1/2"

German origin, "Vienna Regulator", 3-weight, Grand Sonnerie double door, walnut cased wall clock with melodious rod quarter striking, the dial and pendulum with female, Art Nouveau decorations, c1900
CONDITION: the replaced smooth weights do not have Nouveau decorations. Some of the veneer on the case has bubbled up, and the finish is distressed; the top trim is new, stained to match, top left return molding repaired. The movement has been serviced, re-bushed, re-strung and oiled and seems to run and strike fine. Movement mounts to 4 turned brass posts on bracket. Note the trademark on rear of movement is one we have not seen, it shows an armored clad rider on a rearing horse, facing right; we looked in Kochmann's book and on the internet and could not find this trademark. If someone knows, kindly share. Ht 47"
