Lot 15:
A Collection of Scientific Instruments, Silver Plate, and Decorative Ceramics
Description
An assortment of collectibles featuring scientific instruments and decorative objects. The group includes a weather station mounted on a mahogany-finished wooden plinth, comprising three circular brass-rimmed dials: a thermometer calibrated in Celsius, a clock, and a hygrometer. Accompanying this is a separate aneroid barometer housed in a circular oak-finish wooden case with a silvered dial. A slide rule is present in a black textured protective case.
The collection includes a quantity of silver-plated souvenir spoons, many featuring enamelled terminals depicting various town and regional crests. Other metalware items consist of a pewter hip flask with a screw-top, a small pewter tankard, and a set of circular metal coasters held in a wire rack.
Ceramics include a blue and white transfer-printed vase with a scalloped tulip-shaped rim and a matching small cream jug with a scroll handle. Two miniature ceramic souvenir clogs and a small circular dish are also present. The dish features a printed British Royal Coat of Arms with the mottos HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE and DIEU ET MON DROIT. A small faceted clear glass scent bottle with a stopper and a black-painted metal silhouette depicting a band of five cats playing musical instruments complete the lot.
Marks and inscriptions include a red rectangular cardboard box printed with Souvenirs in gold script and a small yellow box printed with MEDICINE DROPPER. The weather station dials are printed with THERMOMETER and HYGROMETER.
