A very rare pair of Japanese Cloisonne vases in the manner of early works by Namikawa Yasuyuki. In the early stage of Namikawa’s career sometome in the 1870s, he was known to develop a complex translucent enamel technique over copper which produced the orange/red type enamel referred to as cuprite. Published research and similar examples of this type lead to a potential attribution. The vase form adds to the rarity. Possibly candlesticks or given the Buddhist motifs, it’s possible they were for flower vases on an Altar display in a Buddhist temple. 18 cm // 7 inches height There are some condition issues, notably around the mouth rim of one vase. Age related surface wear and imperfections. Please review all photographs.

A maritime 9 draw telescope, this length and draw number is very very rare and sought after. See the pictures for details. It’s marked Heather, London.. Interestingly this period covers the Napoleonic Wars, in which Englands Navy was heavily involved. Also, from 1795 onwards, William Heather was the premier specialist chart publisher in London. I’m happy to be corrected on any information on this telescope, it has its lens cap and the sliding eyepiece lens cover works perfectly. Length closed is a little under seven inches, open just under forty one inches. This would make a brilliant addition to a collection as the number of draws is so very uncommon..
