Very Rare Early 19th C Gilt Brass Japanese Bracket Or Table Clock Makura Dokei
A very fine and rare early 19. Century gilt brass Japanese bracket / table clock or Makura Dokei in need of restoration. The plated lantern type spring driven movement with balance wheel and verge escapement, the balance with silk suspension. Originally with datework and dial with adjustable hour chapters. Gilt brass case/frame beautifully engraved with foliate sprays and devices. Beautifully turned frame pillars. Rosewood base with convex friese in which is the key drawer. The mechanism is complete but lacks the original dial and datewheels. The striking train is missing only the gathering pallet for the countwheel. A very fine and rare clock but in need of a little careful restoration. Please see images below. At the top of the images below I have included a short video to give you an idea of how the strike mechanism runs. Please allow the video to load before playing it through. In very good but incomplete condition and as seen. The whole clock retains its original gilding in exceptionally good condition.

Alexis Gaudin Petzval 200mm f4 Very Early French Antique Brass Lens c1856 RARE
An antique brass lens of petzval design by a very early french lens maker. Alexis Gaudin Circa 1856. Engraved on barrel beneath the rack. Also signed AG 1856 on front achromat & 1856 on rear flint glass. 8/200mm speed approx. This lens is of typical petzval design. With a cemented achromat doublet lens at the front and 2 air spaced lenses(flint+crown) at the back. Both lens groups are set in their own housings indicating a quality construction. Cosmetic condition: The outside of the brass lens barrel shows much patina and wear commensurate with age. The barrel has been cut(rather crudely) at a later date in order to accept waterhouse stopsnone included! The front hood has some dings so no longer perfectly round! Optical condition: Optically the lens is clean / clear. On close inspection there are some small dust / cleaning / blooming marks / scratches / tiny edge chips to glass and a very small spot of separation on front element all normal for an antique lens of this age and nothing to affect performance. Mechanical condition: The rack and pinion focussing is working fine. I have tested on my Graflex 5×4 camera and this lens focuses a nice sharp image with. It covers the 5×4 plate/film format fine even at infinity. With a focal length of 200mmapprox. This lens is an ideal portrait lens on this format. Should also cover 1/2 plate/5×7 at portrait distancenot tested! THERE IS A FLANGE/RETAINING RING INCLUDED! Also a front cap(very worn). Visible front glass elements diameter: 5.7cm.
