exceptional, the fine and sometimes the simple, too, are<br />

emotions which many of us share.<br />

We’d like to pass on to you our enthusiasm for things<br />

we would love to buy for ourselves, and which you<br />

would for yourselves. In short we call this: <strong>well</strong> <strong>chosen</strong>.<br />

“Abeille” glassware<br />

from La Rochère<br />

The La Rochère glassware stems from<br />

one of the oldest glass manufacturers in<br />

France and the oldest one which is still<br />

in production today. This thick and<br />

sturdy glass series bears the heraldic<br />

animal of the Bonaparte dynasty: the<br />

bee. These glasses are hand-blown in<br />

a wooden form. The thin edge which<br />

results from this process is not a<br />

mistake; it is indeed a characteristic of<br />

quality.<br />

Antoine: hand-blown crystal glass<br />

The glasses in the “Antoine“ series assume the<br />

old French style of glass, which is otherwise<br />

only found in antique shops. The hand-blown<br />

crystal glasses are shaped by hand. Crystal glass<br />

contains at least 10% lead oxide which gives it<br />

a particularly polished surface as <strong>well</strong> as high<br />

light refraction.<br />

Antoine Facette: hand-blown crystal glass with faceting<br />

This series follows the same basic style as for “Antoine“. However, it differs<br />

American glasses from Anchor Hocking<br />

New Orleans, the city of jazz and Mardi Gras, was the inspiration for this range<br />

of glassware, which in America is almost as popular as a trip to the southern<br />

states heartland. Like most glasses from Anchor Hocking, this glass is "rim-tempered".<br />

By targeted heating and cooling, the rim, which in every glass is the<br />

most fragile part, is additionally toughened, so that the life of the glass is considerably<br />

prolonged. From Ohio, USA.<br />

Kwarx®: practically unbreakable<br />

Through extensive research, Kwarx® was developed as a new material for<br />

making glasses for top-quality restaurants. It is said to be extremely resilient<br />

and does not cloud up even after several hundred washes in a dishwasher. In<br />

addition, it is said to be as clear and shiny as cut glass and completely colourless,<br />

so it does not detract from the colour of the wine. In collaboration with<br />

the Union de la Sommellerie Française, Kwarx® was developed and demonstrated<br />

all these qualities. Its resilience is striking.<br />

6 Mertens Waiter's Friend<br />

An important item for every sommelier (or wine<br />

waiter). And this is one of the best. Its ergonomic<br />

design makes it fit comfortably into your<br />

pocket without getting in the way. The firstclass<br />

workmanship will appeal both to the professional<br />

and the dabbler. There are three parts<br />

– corkscrew, bottle opener and knife. Made of<br />

rustproof burnished stainless steel. Length<br />

item no. 100355 £ 22.90<br />

9 Wine Bottle Vacuum Seal<br />

Once a bottle of wine has been opened, the contents<br />

do not remain drinkable for long, even if<br />

the cork is put back in. The vacuum sealer allows<br />

the creation of a vacuum inside the bottle with a<br />

few strokes of the pump, thus delaying unwanted<br />

oxidation of the wine; it should remain drinkable<br />

for around a week. Height 11 cm.<br />

10 Decanter Brush<br />

This carafe brush consists of a flexible covered<br />

metal wire with a wooden handle. The brush is<br />

Decanting Wine<br />

There are two reasons why red wine should be “decanted”. Apart from removing<br />

unwanted sediment, wine is decanted to introduce oxygen so the flavour<br />

can develop and it is ready to drink. This is achieved by pouring the wine into a<br />

decanter, but the process can be speeded up by using a decanting attachment.<br />

9 Decanter from France<br />

Hand-blown by La Rochère, the oldest French glass manufacturer. Fully rounded<br />

form to create the greatest contact between red wine and air. If the contents<br />

of a standard size bottle of red wine are poured in, the decanter will be<br />

half full, with maximum surface area in contact with the air. Height 23 cm, diameter<br />

22 cm, volume 0.75 ml. Weight 1 kg.<br />

item no. 101933 £ 88.00<br />

10 Decanter from Germany<br />

Wine racks<br />

With this rack system, you can build up your wine cellar in stages without limit, starting<br />

off with just 12 bottles. Just hammer in a few nails and within 20 minutes you<br />

will have assembled a 12-bottle module. Metal braces at the front and back make<br />

for a very stable structure, even if a large number of “storeys” are placed on top of<br />

one another.<br />

attach to the adjacent 12-bottle rack 3 clips are needed, 5 clips for 30-bottle rack,<br />

and 8 for 72-bottle rack. The clips also create extra storage space between the racks.<br />

item no. 101441 £ 9.99 for 5 clips<br />

4 Decanting Funnel<br />

The sieve attachment captures any sediment. The wine<br />

flows through the curved tube down the side of the<br />

of 1.5 mm thick stainless steel, making it entirely scuffproof.<br />

like a drawer, with four indentations to hold a<br />

standard buffet warmer candle. Steel is a good conductor<br />

of heat, so it will warm up evenly. Made by a small<br />

5 Servicio Serving Trolley<br />

This serving trolley is a typical example of Bauhaus design in the 1920s and<br />

1930s and the increasingly popular classic modern of the time. The light,<br />

chrome-plated steel-tube construction provides two tray areas in black<br />

ashwood veneer, each surrounded with a rail – so lots of mobile stacking space.<br />

Height 95 cm, width 80 cm, depth 36 cm, weight 14 kg. The appearance of the<br />

serving trolley goes back to a design from 1934 by the firm L & C Arnold in<br />

Stendal. Due to its close proximity to Dessau's Bauhaus, this firm was one of the<br />

most experimental partners for the organisers there in the 1920s and 1930s.<br />

The trolley is still manufactured by L & C in Stendal today.<br />

1 “Lampe Berger” Scented Lamp<br />

The Lampe Berger gets rid of bad odours instead of covering them up. Its principle,<br />

based on a catalytic combustion process, was invented by the Frenchman<br />

Maurice Berger in 1898. The catalytic combustion of alcohol is burning without<br />

a flame. It is made possible via a catalytic layer on the burner. The burner<br />

itself is made up of two heating zones: the outer part reaches a temperature<br />

of more than 500 °C to purify the air in the room by getting rid of unpleasant<br />

odours, amongst other things. The odour molecules in the atmosphere which<br />

float past the burner are destroyed via cracking and catalytic oxidation. The<br />

inner part of the burner is only heated to 200 °C and is – if the lamp liquid is<br />

scented – responsible for scenting the room. This lower temperature makes<br />

it possible for the scent to be released and finely distributed in the air.<br />

3 Armenian Paper: Deodoriser from the 19th Century<br />

For over 125 years, paper soaked in styrax, an Asian amber, has been used to neutralise<br />

food and tobacco smells or other unpleasant odours. The Frenchman Auguste<br />

Poncet brought the amber, which is also used in the preparation of frankincense and<br />

has a similar smell, back with him from a journey to Armenia. The paper comes in<br />

booklets of 12 sheets with 3 strips each. Each strip is placed on an ashtray, lit and put<br />

out again, so that it slowly burns away.<br />

1 Sterling Silver Toast Rack<br />

Toast racks like this one are <strong>well</strong>-known from the elegant breakfast tables of<br />

the 19th and early 20th centuries: hot slices of toast remained deliciously crisp<br />

as they slowly cooled, instead of going soggy in bread baskets or bowls. Over<br />

time, toasters moved ever closer to the breakfast table, which meant that toast<br />

racks became rare and are now nearly always silver-plated or only available for<br />

a high price at antiques dealers. On the breakfast table, however, they are still<br />

useful and decorative. Made in Italy from sterling silver. Holds up to 6 slices of<br />

toast. Height 12 cm, width 9 cm, length 13.5 cm. Weight 240 g.<br />

Dundee, located in the middle of a large fruit-growing area (famous for soft<br />

fruit like raspberries and blackberries), is traditionally described as the “Home<br />

of Marmalade“. Here it is said that the first shredded batch of marmalade was<br />

made over 200 years ago, using Seville oranges. The oranges were too bitter to<br />

eat but turned out to be very tasty after boiling the fruit and so marmalade<br />

was “invented”, to the joy of marmalade fans. Made to traditional recipes<br />

using top quality fruits. The fruits are boiled slowly in open copper pans to preserve<br />

quality.<br />

Mother of pearl comes from the lining of large shells in the South Pacific.<br />

Apart from its fascinating pearly iridescent look, the advantage of using<br />

mother of pearl for making spoons is that, like horn, it does not affect the<br />

taste when coming into contact with eggs or caviar. In addition this cool,<br />

heavy material is always pleasant to the touch.<br />

“Brasserie” by Pillivuyt<br />

For almost 200 years, Pillivuyt has been producing porcelain whose robustness and<br />

heat resistance have led it to become internationally known as simply the best<br />

French restaurant chinaware. The robustness of the products is the result of a special<br />

firing process: in the first stage, all parts are shaped and then pre-fired at<br />

approx. 1000 °C; next, they are glazed and fired a second time at more than 1400<br />

°C to obtain a very hard, scratch-resistant surface and a pure, deep white. After the<br />

decoration has been applied, they are fired again at approx. 1000 °C, which seals it<br />

into the glaze and makes it virtually indestructible – and, of course, dishwasher<br />

safe. The individual parts are in the kiln for more than 30 hours in total.<br />

The Brasserie range has been one of the classics of the French catering trade<br />

since the 1920s. Every bistro, brasserie and restaurant could have its menu fired<br />

on to its own crockery. Today's version features the menu from the fictitious<br />

“Grande Brasserie Nationale, 33 Rue de la République - Consommation de<br />

Stainless Steel Cutlery Set: Baguette<br />

This classic and timeless cutlery set has been in use in higher class restaurants<br />

for many years now, especially where durability and good looks play an important<br />

role while being permanently in use. It is worth making a note of the sizes.<br />

At almost 25 cm, the dinner knife is a nice size. The cutlery size is particularly<br />

suitable for modern and larger crockery. The cutlery is made of polished stainless<br />

steel which is completely rustproof thanks to the amount of chrome contained<br />

in it. In addition, it is resistant to food acids. Thickness: 3.5 mm, the<br />

knives have a hollow handle, all items are dishwasher safe.<br />

"Pronto" tableware<br />

from KAHLA<br />

This tableware is a true classic without<br />

any traces of yesteryear. The <strong>well</strong>known<br />

simple style is available in<br />

seven colours. You can order everything<br />

in one colour, or be more daring<br />

and mix and match. The Kahla chinaware<br />

factory is located in the German<br />

town in Thuringia bearing the same<br />

name, and can look back on over<br />

150 years of tradition.<br />

Kahla manufactures kaolin hard porcelain which<br />

has a slight blueish white glaze compared to the<br />

renowned bone china which stems predominantly<br />

from England with its slight yellowish<br />

tone. As kaolin porcelain is fired at 1400 °C<br />

(bone china is fired at around 1200 °C) it is particularly<br />

tough and hard-wearing.<br />

It is also worth noting that Kahla undertakes the<br />

decorating firing at 1100 °C (this is usually done<br />

at around 800 ° C), meaning that the colour<br />

assumest a permanent bond with the glaze. The<br />

dishwasher safe (red: dishwasher suitable)<br />

Pronto tableware comes from the hotel porcelain<br />

division of Kahla. Here a thicker body is produced<br />

which is especially shock-proof and the<br />

material thickness is able to sustain heat longer<br />

than thinner chinaware.<br />

Cutlery with Coloured Handles from France<br />

There are some manufacturers who produce<br />

cutlery with handles made of coloured acrylic.<br />

There is a significant difference as regards the<br />

quality of the metal anchoring, the synthetic<br />

material used and the surface finish. This Sabre<br />

cutlery, in a classic and timeless design, has also<br />

passed our “tried and trusted” test. It is dishwasher<br />

safe. The metal parts are made of stainless<br />

steel, and the knives will remain permanently<br />

sharp. The cutlery items are virtually<br />

unbreakable, the surface of the acrylic handles<br />

are polished and the edges of the casting<br />

moulds have been carefully removed.<br />

6 Denby Teapot – Never Drip<br />

The design of the legendary classic Denby teapot was patented in England in 1922.<br />

The Denby teapot was already a must at tea parties in the Roaring Twenties.<br />

However, it became known everywhere as the “never drip” teapot because of its<br />

unique spout. The spout was designed “to pour with commendable straightforwardness”<br />

which is taken from an advertising text dating back to the 20s.<br />

Nevertheless, what makes it even more special is the fact that not a single droplet<br />

of tea drips from the spout! Capacity 1.4 l. Diameter 15 cm, length (from spout to<br />

handle) 24.5 cm, height 11 cm, weight 825g.<br />

1 Borosilicate Glass Tea Service<br />

Glass is <strong>well</strong> suited for vessels which come into<br />

contact with tea, as the smooth non-porous<br />

surface can be easily cleaned. Brosilicate glass,<br />

which is mainly used in laboratories with their<br />

equivalent high demands, is extremely heatresistant,<br />

dishwasher and microwave safe and<br />

highly shock-proof. The tea is put into a glass<br />

sieve which is taken out of the pot as soon as<br />

the tea has infused. It is enchanting to see the<br />

colour of the tea spread in the water through<br />

the glass.<br />

5 Cosy Teapot<br />

Cosy teapots have been associated with the Dutch-based company located in<br />

Hilversum, Bredemeijer, ever since 1914. They are manufactured using high-quality<br />

earthenware and have a polished stainless steel jacket with a felt lining. This doublewalled<br />

insulation means that tea stays hot in the pot for around one hour. As the<br />

tea is not continually heated up, as is the case with a tea warmer, the taste stays the<br />

same. As the inside of the teapot is glazed, the Cosy teapot is ideal for black, green<br />

or fruit teas. For cleaning purposes, it is possible to take out the inside of the teapot.<br />

The teapot interior, feet and other spare parts are also sold separately. Capacity<br />

Mechanical Coffee Grinder by Peugeot<br />

Freshly ground coffee always tastes that bit better. The multitude of aromas<br />

found in coffee remain intact, allowing each one to slowly unfold. A grinder<br />

is only as good as the mechanism inside it. After all, it determines how precisely<br />

and evenly the roasted coffee beans turn into aromatic ground coffee or<br />

espresso. Peugeot has been manufacturing coffee grinders ever since 1840, and<br />

is very <strong>well</strong>-known for the quality of its grinders, especially in the trade. The<br />

carbon steel blade in the grinder preserves the aroma and produces a fine powder<br />

with a coffee aroma which is impossible to resist. The coffee bean is not<br />

heated up in the process and all the flavouring unfolds. The casing is made of<br />

solid wood with a brass or chrome-plated brass crank handle and funnel.<br />

Peugeot gives a 20-year guarantee on the grinding mechanism. Height: 22 cm,<br />

Le Jacquard Tea Towels<br />

Le Jacquard Français weaving mill is one of the leading<br />

manufacturers of high-quality fabrics in France. It was<br />

founded in 1888 in Gérardmer in the Vosges – the area<br />

surrounding Gérardmer has been one of the most<br />

important areas for growing flax for centuries, as <strong>well</strong><br />

as weaving high-quality linen and cotton fabrics.<br />

Jacquard or damask, which was named after this mill, is<br />

a fabric which has the pattern woven into it. In this way,<br />

complex patterns can be made in the weave, without<br />

having to print the fabric – what's more, the play of<br />

light on the pattern varies its intensity and dynamic<br />

appearance, which has made damask very popular in<br />

Copper Pots and Pans from Mauviel<br />

When it comes to heat conduction and heat distribution,<br />

copper outweighs steel with the same<br />

material thickness by a long shot. Hence it is the<br />

ideal material for manufacturing pots and pans.<br />

In their top product line, Mauviel manufactures<br />

pots and pans with an inner stainless steel coating<br />

rather than the widely accepted tin which is<br />

prone to scratches and sensitive to heat. These<br />

combine the advantages of steel and copper<br />

pans. The result: optimal heat conduction, and<br />

the inside of the pan is hard-wearing and yet<br />

easy to clean. The material thickness is 2.5 mm<br />

(0.1"). The handles are made of cast iron. This<br />

family-owned company based in Normandy,<br />

France, has been around since 1830 and is <strong>well</strong>known<br />

among professionals and dedicated<br />

hobby cooks for its high quality.<br />

metal surface is polished using a clean cloth. This<br />

1 Indispensable for Browning Meat: Lyonnaise Pans<br />

These heavy-duty pans have a steel thickness of 2.5 to 3 mm which ensure<br />

even heat distribution. Consequently, the pans are suitable for anywhere with<br />

a high degree of heat, such as gas hobs, as <strong>well</strong> as other hobs, including induction.<br />

The pan's surface is neither varnished nor enamelled which adds to the<br />

high degree of heat retention. The handles are also made of steel, so that the<br />

pans can also be put in the oven. De Buyer from France has over 170 years of<br />

experience in metal working.<br />

Cast-Iron Pans from Skeppshult<br />

The rough and untreated surface of a cast-iron pan is ideal for browning or<br />

frying. Our No. 1 choice for steaks. Due to the pans’ thickness (5.5 mm/0.2”)<br />

cast iron is very good for an even distribution of heat as <strong>well</strong> as heat retention,<br />

meaning that these pans are also ideal for slow cooking. Skeppshult from<br />

Sweden uses sand moulds to form the cast iron pans before deburring them.<br />

The base is then lathed so that the pans rest perfectly on top of the hob.<br />

Suitable for all cooker types. These pans are not rustproof! Do not wash up<br />

using detergent. Simply wash out using warm water. Then dry as normal and<br />

rub in cooking oil periodically.<br />

original flavour of food. Just like our pans above, the<br />

wok comes from the <strong>well</strong>-known provider of pans to<br />

the catering industry, de Buyer. The 2 mm-thick steel<br />

means that food can be browned, fried or roasted on a<br />

high flame. There is an even distribution of heat thanks<br />

to the thickness of the sides. The hole in the handle is<br />

useful for hanging up the wok, and there is an additional<br />

handle on the other side. Diameter 40 cm, base<br />

It is made of a beech wood frame which is<br />

stringed with thin, zinc-coated steel wires at<br />

regular intervals. The pasta dough is laid across<br />

the wires and then pushed through them with<br />

principle as an egg slicer. Pasta with a rectangular<br />

profile and rough, porous surfaces is produced,<br />

which absorbs sauces especially <strong>well</strong> and is<br />

particularly suited to meat sauces. For spaghetti<br />

and macaroni alla chitarra. As the chitarra is<br />

5mm-wide fettuccini or 2.5 mm-wide linguine<br />

can be made. The tension of the wires can be readjusted<br />

Cuisipro: No need to grate, these devices cut!<br />

The blade technology of these kitchen items<br />

has been taken from bark-stripping machines<br />

used in the Canadian forest industry. The<br />

blades are photo-etched rather than stamped<br />

like most grating blades, thus cutting through<br />

food rather than shredding it. The blades<br />

remain sharp. Stainless steel with non-slip pad<br />

on end for grating ease. Length 33 cm, width<br />

7.5 cm, weight 160 g. Dishwasher safe.<br />

Zwilling Kitchen Shears<br />

The original Zwilling kitchen gadget was first presented by the company<br />

Zwilling J.A. Henckels in 1938 and still sets the standard even today as a result<br />

of its outstanding quality. The forged metal parts are made of ice-tempered,<br />

rustproof special steel. A micro-serrated edge means that the scissors have a<br />

good grip. The scissors are also useful for cutting paper, foil, cardboard,<br />

flowers, cord etc., for opening bottle tops and screw tops. The shears can be<br />

adjusted and retightened. Length 20 cm, width 6.5 cm, weight 140 g.<br />

Effortlessly gets the flesh out of the pineapple, leaving<br />

the husk behind. After cutting off the head of the<br />

pineapple, the device is twisted into the flesh like a<br />

corkscrew and then pulled out again. This way, you get<br />

a pineapple spiral (diameter 8.5 cm) with no core, which<br />

can then be served as desired. Dishwasher safe, 18/10<br />

3 Cuisipro Parmesan Grater<br />

The special thing about this parmesan grater is its rotating drum: it’s not made up<br />

of a metal roller with holes punched in, as is common with other products, but a thin<br />

steel sheet which has tiny blades cut into it in a chemical process. The result is<br />

gloriously powdery parmesan. The grater can also be used to grate chocolate. It can<br />

be completely taken apart for cleaning and is dishwasher safe. The handle and lever<br />

have a non-slip layer; the rest of the device is finished in satinised polycarbonate.<br />

Height 9 cm, width with handle 13.8 cm, length 17.5 cm, weight 190 g.<br />

5 Royal VKB Garlic Crusher<br />

Conventional garlic presses press out the garlic. The<br />

remainder, with its juice extracted, stays in the press<br />

and is usually discarded. The garlic crusher crushes the<br />

garlic with a simple rolling motion. Crushed in this<br />

way, the garlic develops a particularly intense flavour.<br />

The garlic crusher can then be washed under running<br />

water. As it is made entirely of stainless steel, it works<br />

like stainless steel soap and removes garlic odour<br />

from the hands. Diameter 3.6 cm, width 18 cm,<br />

KAI Shun Damascus Steel Knives<br />

High-quality Japanese knives are harder than<br />

similar European ones and can therefore be<br />

ground to a more acute angle. For this reason,<br />

the Japanese knives are also thinner. Because<br />

they are thinner and ground to a smaller angle,<br />

they glide easily through produce. Damascus<br />

steel is forged in several layers laid over one<br />

another. The various layers are can be seen in<br />

the finished blade as a type of grain. This production<br />

method is not for decorative purposes.<br />

The outer, softer layers are forged around a<br />

particularly hard centre and the finished blade<br />

is therefore flexible and suitable for all purposes.<br />

These kitchen knives from the Shun range<br />

by the leading Japanese cutler KAI are made<br />

from Damascus steel with 32 layers. The inner<br />

layer is made of V-Gold-10 steel. This steel is<br />

extremely resistant to corrosion, very hard (61±<br />

1 HRC, 1.0% carbon, 1.5% cobalt) and makes<br />

the blade uniquely sharp and retains the sharpness<br />

of the blade. Every knife is hand-ground.<br />

The techniques used come from the Japanese<br />

Samurai art of sword making. The handles are<br />

made from laminated Pakka wood with a light<br />

cross section for a safe grip. The blade is anchored<br />

within the handle along its whole<br />

length, which allows for a high level of stability<br />

and control when cutting.<br />

1 Margrete Bowl<br />

A design classic from Denmark<br />

These mixing bowls were designed in 1950 by<br />

industrial designer Sigvard Bernadotte, the<br />

uncle of the Danish queen Margrethe, and the<br />

architect Acton Bjørn. Melamine receptacles<br />

from Rosti enjoyed great popularity from the<br />

50s to the 70s and today are considered<br />

modern classics. The Museum of Modern Art in<br />

New York has examples in its permanent collection.<br />

In 1997, the Danish post office brought<br />

out a stamp in honour of the Margrethe bowls.<br />

Melamine is a plastic made of cellulose and<br />

rock flour. The bowls have a non-slip rubber<br />

ring on the underside.<br />

1 Aluminium Storage Jars<br />

These storage jars are found in most Italian households. They are made of a<br />

single piece of aluminium and thus are light, rustproof and unbreakable.<br />

Although it cannot be said that the glass version with aluminium lid is unbreakable,<br />

it has the advantage of being able to see the contents inside. Thanks to<br />

a plastic seal the glass storage jars are virtually airtight.<br />

the food it has been storing and is easy to clean. Small or large amounts of<br />

leftovers can be stored in the four differently sized containers. As a result of<br />

the square shape and the slight indent in the lid, the containers can be stored<br />

efficiently in the refrigerator. Stainless steel. Made in Italy.<br />

meaning that it stays cooler for longer when taken out<br />

of the fridge. Ideal for juices, milk etc. Height 23.5 cm,<br />

Solid brass products from Lower Saxony<br />

The following solid brass products are produced in a small metal workshop<br />

that still practises its craft according to traditional methods. A metal spinner<br />

creates all sorts of round and hollow shapes out of a flat metal disc. A girdler<br />

then presses, chases, solders and polishes the metal. None of the products<br />

made for us are coated with a protective lacquer. Although this gives a degree<br />

of protection against oxidation with time and use, this cracks and flakes off,<br />

so the surface gets scratched and becomes dirty and unsightly because the the<br />

brass tarnishes in these spots and is difficult to properly clean or polish.<br />

Without the lacquer, the brass simply develops a lovely patina and can be<br />

polished to a high shine if you want.<br />

4 Wall + Ceiling Light Eintopf<br />

When you move into a new house or flat, the first priority<br />

is to provide light in all the rooms, with whatever is<br />

available if need be. Over the years, the naked light<br />

bulbs that had been used temporarily become a permanent<br />

fixture. This lamp can be a very convincing temporary<br />

or permanent solution. Combined with a dimmed<br />

globe lamp (Ø 95–120 mm), it produces a very<br />

pleasant light. You can also provide indirect lighting<br />

very easily by using a mirror spot. Design by<br />

Martin Wallroth. Housing in white powder-coating.<br />

A German original, steeped in tradition: the "Feuerhand" storm lantern, which was<br />

in rooms and gardens. Since 1902, nothing has changed in their manufacturing process.<br />

The Feuerhand has nothing in common with the numerous cheap replicas. The<br />

casing is guaranteed waterproof and the precise workmanship gives a comfortable<br />

hold. The Schott Suprax glass is resistant to high temperatures. All parts are tin-coated<br />

and thus rustproof (although the Feuerhand should not be constantly exposed to<br />

wind and water). Height 25.5 cm, weight 530 g, volume 340 ccm, lasts 20 hours.<br />

5 Ceramic Fire Bowl<br />

A safe place for a fire in the garden, on the balcony<br />

around it with a pleasant atmosphere. On summer<br />

nights you can sit outside longer and you<br />

can warm yourself around the fire bowl in the<br />

autumn and the winter as <strong>well</strong> – for example,<br />

when taking a break from raking up leaves, at<br />

the edge of a skating rink or when drinking<br />

punch. Even after the fire has gone, the bowl<br />

gives out the stored heat to the area around it<br />

Garden Torches<br />

The lamp bodies of our torches are made of<br />

solid polished copper. Since the copper is<br />

untreated, the metal acquires a patina unless<br />

you polish the copper from to time. The wicks<br />

are of fibreglass and thus weatherproof and<br />

practically do not wear at all. The 3 cm thick<br />

shafts are made of hardwood from managed<br />

forestry plantations and thus are very durable<br />

even in damp conditions.<br />

Rose Globes<br />

Decorating the garden with rose or garden globes of<br />

glass is a tradition dating back many centuries. This<br />

custom has experienced a renaissance in recent years.<br />

Rose globes can now be found in the magnificent gardens<br />

of large houses or on the balconies of city apartments.<br />

The characteristics of good-quality rose globes are<br />

high durability of the metal reflective coating, a metal<br />

reflective coating that is completely opaque even in<br />

bright light and ends that have been rounded off by<br />

melting over instead of having a raw sawn surface where<br />

they were cut. Diameter 15 cm, (globes), 12 cm (frogs)<br />

and 21 cm (sun). Hand-blown in the Thuringian Forest.<br />

1 Sussex Garden Trug<br />

These typically English garden trugs have been made mainly in Sussex in<br />

southern England for over 200 years. As far back as 1851, they caught the<br />

attention of Queen Victoria at the Great Exhibition, leading her to order some<br />

for the Royal Gardens. Garden trugs are light, very robust and, because they<br />

are made from strips of plywood, they are much more watertight than a basket<br />

made from wire or wattled willow. Especially suitable for transporting and<br />

storing soft fruits and vegetables. For use in the garden but also as a storage<br />

or fruit basket in the home. Height 27 cm approx., width 57 cm, depth 27 cm.<br />

Weight 700 g approx.<br />

6 Felco Garden Clippers<br />

Felco clippers from Switzerland have been<br />

around for almost 60 years and have long been<br />

synonymous with good garden clippers. We<br />

stock a two-blade model, which cuts more<br />

cleanly than the popular anvil-type clippers and<br />

allow you to cut directly at the stalk base. The<br />

plastic-covered grips have buffers and shock<br />

absorbers to be kinder to your wrist. A toothed<br />

nut makes it possible to easily and precisely<br />

adjust the gap between the two blades, which is<br />

the prerequisite for a consistently clean and precise<br />

cut. All the parts that are subject to wear<br />

can be replaced. Felco gives a lifetime guarantee<br />

on the handles that are made of a forged<br />

aluminium alloy. Length 21 cm, weight 250 g.<br />

For cutting items up to 2.5 cm in thickness.<br />

Porte-Savon Rotatif<br />

French restaurant and public building toilets are inconceivable without this soap,<br />

which was created over 50 years ago. Besides the pleasantly fresh citrus scent, it has<br />

the great advantage of not running out quickly since it can’t be used under running<br />

water. What is more, it never lies around in the water and so it does not get soft.<br />

Its wall mounting means that it is more than likely that you will always be able to<br />

find it in the same place. Also ideal for the kitchen or garden. Holder: Height 10 cm,<br />

Thermo-treated ash:<br />

Products made from oiled thermo ash have a<br />

huge advantage over natural wood products in<br />

terms of their high moisture resistance, which<br />

makes them ideal for use in damp rooms and in<br />

the open air. The ash wood, which is already<br />

very strong by nature, is heated over a period of<br />

up to 48 hours in the absence of oxygen to temperatures<br />

between 180 and 220 °C – the initial<br />

slight smoky aroma goes away over time. This<br />

reduces s<strong>well</strong>ing and shrinking of the wood,<br />

while increasing its rigidity and resistance to<br />

decay. The main advantage of this treatment,<br />

however, is that water absorption is greatly<br />

reduced, which means that thermowood products<br />

do not become saturated after being in<br />

contact with water for a long time, which is normally<br />

only guaranteed with tropical woods such<br />

as teak or bangkirai. Compared to using tropical<br />

woods, products made from thermowood are<br />

completely harmless from an ecological perspective.<br />

The dark colour comes about as a<br />

result of the thermal treatment, which eliminates<br />

the need for staining – bleaching caused by<br />

sunlight is still possible, however.<br />

1 Pears Transparent Soap<br />

In 1807 Andrew Pears, who owned a barber shop in Soho, was conducting<br />

experiments to find a soap that was more skin-friendly than other contemporary<br />

soaps. After a series of attempts he met with success and created a soap out<br />

of pure glycerine and natural oils that set new standards in its moisture-giving<br />

and conditioning properties. Even more decisive for its continuing 200-year<br />

success was the fact that after 3 months maturing the soap turned transparent,<br />

which for a long time made Pears Soap easily distinguishable from other soaps.<br />

Even today, connoisseurs swear by the unmistakable, spiced scent of cedar,<br />

rosemary and thyme. 125 g.<br />

6 Lucky Tiger Face Tonic<br />

Developed in the 1920s by the owner of a hairdresser’s<br />

in Kansas City and sold nationwide since 1935,<br />

Lucky Tiger became the best-selling aftershave in the<br />

USA in the 1950s, thanks to its exquisite skin care<br />

properties. The alcohol-free recipe, based on natural<br />

ingredients, means that Lucky Tiger can be applied<br />

to the face immediately after shaving, without causing<br />

redness or irritating the skin: aloe vera and<br />

camomile have a soothing and invigorating effect,<br />

marigold heals and disinfects, vitamins A and E are<br />

antioxidants, and borage oil is highly moisturising. It<br />

has a fresh and light aroma, reminiscent of green<br />

oranges, which evaporates after a short time – so<br />

Lucky Tiger can easily take an additional application<br />

of eau de cologne. 8 oz (227 ml) plastic bottle.<br />

moisture particularly <strong>well</strong>. The shaving soap is<br />

“triple-milled” (boiled three times), i.e. highly<br />

concentrated for long-lasting richness and thick<br />

foam. With a delicate almond fragrance. Height<br />

8 For over 80 years: Musgo Real Shaving Cream<br />

This skincare range from the 1920s will appeal to the traditional, classic man. It<br />

is made by the renowned company Claus Porto. The aroma constituting this<br />

line is reminiscent of hay flowers and is composed of a mixture of patchouli<br />

and vetiver. The shaving cream is very rich and produces a thick, creamy foam.<br />

The mixture of natural lanolin, glycerine and coconut oil soaks the beard and<br />

makes it supple. As a result, the blade cuts the stubble more deeply – the shave<br />

is closer and, at the same time, more gentle. Suitable for all skin types.<br />

Unusually rich, so one tube lasts up to three months. 100 ml tube.<br />

item no. 104162 £ 10.90<br />

10 Mühle Shaving Soaps<br />

for a truly conditioning, thorough shave. All<br />

soaps fit the shaving dish. 60g. (£ 8.17 / 100 g)<br />

Mühle shaving culture from the Erz Mountains<br />

in Germany<br />

In 1945 the family company Mühle was founded<br />

by Otto Johannes Müller, which has since passed<br />

into the ownership of the third generation and<br />

is now among the few world-renowned producers<br />

of high-quality shaving brushes and appliances<br />

for wet shaving.<br />

1 Silvertip Shaving Brush<br />

Finest badger hair with silver tips. The best of<br />

the best: choice badger hair with light tips,<br />

which is distinguished by its particularly high<br />

flexibility. The softly peaked tips make microfine<br />

foam. The handle made from synthetic resin<br />

(also used for high quality fountain pens) is<br />

lathed and finely polished – all by hand. The<br />

base is made from high-quality nickel-plated<br />

solid brass. Height 10 cm.<br />

item no. 104603 £ 79.00<br />

2 Best Shaving Brush<br />

The high flexibility of a silvertip brush is not for<br />

everyone. With a brush made from firmer hairs,<br />

foam can be whipped up more quickly and distributed<br />

around the face more precisely and<br />

gently. That's why we have a brush made from<br />

best badger hair. Height 10 cm.<br />

item no. 105092 £ 62.00<br />

3 For a particularly fine pre-shaving<br />

experience: Mühle Short Shaving Brush<br />

This brush with shorter best badger hairs is a<br />

good alternative if you’re not a fan of the high<br />

elasticity of a silvertip brush or even a normal<br />

best badger brush. It allows you to work the<br />

shaving soap extremely precisely: you can almost<br />

paint your face. Height 8 cm.<br />

item no. 106743 £ 62.00<br />

1 Scents by Czech & Speake<br />

All our scents are originals and could not possibly be compared with mass-produced<br />

products. Czech & Speake can barely be topped when it comes to exclusivity.<br />

The company only produces scents every two years, so that we cannot<br />

offer any after shaves at the moment. The company that was only founded in<br />

1978 is primarily concerned with the design and creation of luxury bathroom<br />

equipment and accessories.<br />

Czech & Speake No. 88<br />

The oldest scent by Czech & Speake, named after the street number of the<br />

shop in London's Jermyn Street. A traditional English perfume that is based on<br />

an original Elizabethan recipe, representing the style of the perfumer. With<br />

notes of bergamot, geranium, attar of rose, blackcurrant and frangipani on a<br />

dry base note of vetiver and sandalwood. 100 ml.<br />

Eau de Cologne item no. 105674 £ 98.00 After Shave item no.106970 £ 79.00<br />

Czech & Speake Cuba<br />

One of the latest fragrances from Czech & Speake, inspired by the old town of<br />

Havana with its Latin rhythms, smooth cigars, fine rum and exotic beauties.<br />

This fragrance bursts into life with the initial top notes of bergamot, lime,<br />

peppermint and a hint of rum. Layered with a melange of spicy and floral<br />

middle notes, mainly rose, clove and bay. The lasting base notes of tobacco<br />

mixed with the richness of frankincense, cedar wood and vetiver round off<br />

this striking fragrance. 100 ml.<br />

Eau de Cologne item no. 105675 £ 98.00 After Shave item no.106969 £ 79.00<br />

3 After Shaves from Cas<strong>well</strong>-Massey<br />

These are products from the oldest and most traditional American company<br />

for bodycare products. The company goes back to the opening of a drugstore<br />

in 1752 by Dr William Hunter in Newport, Rhode Island. George Washington<br />

and Benjamin Franklin were among his customers.<br />

Jockey Club After Shave<br />

This fragrance was created in 1840 “for the gentleman who prefers one fragrance<br />

for all occasions“. The most famous customer of Jockey Club was probably<br />

John F. Kennedy, who set standards with his lifestyle that are still effective<br />

today. A dry, fresh scent, with notes of forest and amber as <strong>well</strong> as hints of<br />

bergamot, citrus and patchouli. 88 ml bottle.<br />

item no. 104433 £ 32.00 (£ 36.36 / 100 ml)<br />

Michelsen’s Bay Rum. Not just an after shave.<br />

The basis of this Eau de Toilette (and we mean the literal meaning of the<br />

phrase) is bayberries (the fruit of the tree Pimenta acris, also known as the allspice<br />

tree), orange oil and finest Jamaica rum. The result is an unusual, spicyexotic<br />

composition – unchanged since 1872. For years, Bay Rum has been used<br />

as a hair and facial water, not just for shaving. Used as a body splash it is revitalising<br />

and refreshing and soothes away tension. 88 ml bottle.<br />

item no. 104434 £ 30.90 (£ 35.11 / 100 ml)<br />

4 Musgo Real Men's Body Soap<br />

Extra mild and creamy soap with a spicy aroma<br />

for the whole body. Made from coconut oil,<br />

palm oil, palm kernel oil, lanolin and glycerine.<br />

“Para a beleza da sua pele” (Portuguese for<br />

“for the beauty of your skin”). 160 g.<br />

2 Bath and body products for men from Acca Kappa<br />

“Acca Kappa” stands for the Italian pronunciation of the letters H and K – the initials<br />

of the German merchant Hermann Krull who in 1869 settled in Treviso, firstly<br />

to trade in pearls and brushes imported from the Orient. Universally known for their<br />

first-class hair brushes, in the past few years Acca Kappa have also been developing<br />

some of the most exclusive skincare lines which in their conception always go by the<br />

principles of simplicity and naturalness. This means that all their skincare products<br />

are made using natural ingredients and without the use of animal testing.<br />

These products are from the Muschio Bianco range from Acca Kappa, which is the<br />

epitome of a restrained, timelessly classic skincare line and is not un-modern. The<br />

elegantly fresh and Mediterranean aroma is built around a base note of cedar wood,<br />

vetiver and maté, a middle note of cardamom, coriander, nutmeg and black pepper,<br />

and a top note of bergamot, orange, cumin and star anise.<br />

the unique strong taste of Euthymol”. It’s down to personal<br />

taste: either you will not be able to get enough of<br />

it or the first tube will also be your last. A small dose of<br />

the toothpaste with the characteristic pink colour,<br />

about the size of a pea, should be sufficient. 75 ml<br />

almond and jojoba ensure optimal care even in the case of very dry or chapped<br />

lips. Usually a single application is sufficient to provide the lips with enough<br />

moisture to make them pleasantly soft. The added anise extract gives the<br />

balm an extra freshness. The little tub can be always carried with you. 0.4 oz<br />

Korres Natural Products<br />

Korres has its origin in the first homoeopathic<br />

pharmacy in Athens. Using his deep knowledge<br />

of homoeopathy and herbal medicine, Giorgos<br />

Travel luggage made by Filson: Each piece is made to last a lifetime.<br />

Travel luggage made by Filson in Seattle will stand up to the toughest<br />

demands. In the last great gold rush at the Klondike at the end of the 19th century,<br />

Filson products were among the favourites of the gold hunters on account<br />

of their exceptional robustness. The luggage is made of a very heavy, densely<br />

woven cotton twill (726 g/m 2 ) which is treated with a special paraffin wax to<br />

make it waterproof. All zips and metal parts are made of corrosion-resistant<br />

brass, while all leather parts are made of very tough vegetable-tanned cowhide.<br />

To this day, the bags are made at the Filsons factory in Seattle. To clean,<br />

wipe with a damp sponge or brush off any dirt. Do not machine wash or dry<br />

clean. The zips may initially be difficult to move; this subsides over time. The<br />

bridle leather also softens with use.<br />

1 Mr Brady’s Traveller’s Bag<br />

The authors of the German almanac “Das Beste<br />

vom Besten” (“The Best of the Best”) declared<br />

this bag the “best hand luggage” in 1989, praising<br />

its spaciousness, flexibility, indestructibility<br />

and its "beautifully professional appearance".<br />

Apparently, it was developed sometime in the<br />

19th century by an enthusiastic angler in London<br />

called Brady. We have them made by John<br />

Chapman, the leading English manufacturer of<br />

hunting and angling bags. This bag is made from<br />

double-layered, rubber-reinforced cotton canvas<br />

with leather embellishment and an adjustable<br />

shoulder strap in woven cotton and metal parts<br />

in solid brass. All seams are double-sewn at least.<br />

Large interior storage area, two patch pockets<br />

with zip closure. Height 28 cm, width 45 cm,<br />

4 Zipless Suit Carrier<br />

This carrier is a neat alternative to either clothes carriers<br />

that are suitable for air travel or flimsy once-only carriers<br />

for your favourite jacket that needs to be protected<br />

against dust and light or the suit that won’t go in the<br />

suitcase or blouses that have just been ironed. The twocoloured<br />

cover is closed by folding the shoulder flaps<br />

over one another. Made of water-repellent fabric (100%<br />

polyamide) that is also used for, among other things, the<br />

soft tops of convertibles. Length 95 cm, width 60 cm.<br />

4 Leather Roll-Up Toiletry Bag<br />

This wash bag is made according to the example based<br />

on those used by the Royal Army. The outside is made<br />

of oiled leather to protect against unavoidable damp.<br />

On the inside, 5 pockets made of nylon provide plenty<br />

of space for storage. Under a leather strap inside, for<br />

example, toothbrushes and hair brushes can be kept.<br />

Nylon straps protect from dirt, but the air can still get to<br />

the contents. The fastener has 8 holes so there is plenty<br />

of leeway for a full bag. The open bag can be hung up<br />

in the bathroom using the belt strap. Size when closed<br />

25 x 15 x 6 cm, open 43 x 25 cm. Made by a small saddler<br />

in the English West Midlands – exclusively for<br />

Papworth travel goods:<br />

attaché cases made of<br />

hand-finished traditional<br />

saddle leather<br />

Papworth was founded in 1917 and<br />

is now owned by Swaine Adeney<br />

Brigg, who were founded in 1750,<br />

and, like Papworth, have provided<br />

the English court with leather goods<br />

for decades.<br />

All products are made in a factory near<br />

Cambridge according to traditional methods<br />

from saddle leather and other first-class materials.<br />

Although the bags are made on a production<br />

line, one member of staff is personally responsible<br />

for the quality of each individual product,<br />

and their name can be found on a card in each of<br />

the cases. All articles are delivered inside a green<br />

felt bag in which you can keep the case if it is not<br />

being used for long periods of time.<br />

1 Lid-Over Attaché Case<br />

A classic “Lid-Over”, that is to say that the lid flips over<br />

the top of the body. This differs from the other, slimmer<br />

briefcases in our range, as a large folder fits inside.<br />

Made of saddle leather over a steel frame and<br />

hand crafted. All metal parts are made of solid brass.<br />

Lined with green leather. Inner pocket on the lid<br />

with pen holders. Width 46 cm, depth 33 cm, height<br />

3 Hand-Stitched Lid-Over Attaché Case<br />

A once-in-a-lifetime purchase. Papworth lid-over<br />

attaché case, hand-stitched.<br />

1 Normally, manufacturers use machines to sew through<br />

2<br />

the thick saddle leather, as it is a strenuous task, but<br />

here this is carried out by hand. This case therefore has a few nice details that distinguish<br />

it from others in the range. With the other cases, the case and lid are made in<br />

three pieces, while with the hand-crafted case, both pieces are made out of a single<br />

piece of saddle leather. This is evident in the fact that on the hand-made case, open<br />

edges of leather can only be seen on the corners. The trained eye can tell the difference<br />

between hand and machine sewing. Apart from the difference in appearance,<br />

the hand sewing is also more resilient. Width 46 cm, depth 11 cm, height 33 cm,<br />

weight 3.3 kg.<br />

9 Ole Mathiesen Watches<br />

In 1980 when Ole Mathiesen was accepted into the permanent collection of the<br />

MoMA in New York, the small manufacturing firm in Copenhagen received international<br />

attention for the first time. Nearly 20 years previously the clockmaker Ole<br />

Mathiesen – started in 1962 – who learned his trade with, among others, the Swiss<br />

manufacturer Jaeger-LeCoultre, designed a collection of classic watches that have<br />

timeless elegance today. The white, slightly domed dial in an extra flat housing in<br />

stainless steel is characteristic. The watches are not just impressively designed, they<br />

are also of first-class quality, which continues to be overseen by Ole Mathiesen, who<br />

is now over 70 years old.<br />

The housing for this wristwatch by Ole Mathiesen is in polished stainless steel, the<br />

glass in scratchproof convex sapphire glass, the wristband in black calves' leather.<br />

The interior of the housing is furnished with a Swiss extra flat quartz movement<br />

ETA 956.032 for high movement precision. Diameter 33 mm, weight 24 g.<br />

Aviator's Watch “Big Crown”<br />

This aviator's watch was given the name “Big<br />

Crown” due to its extra-large winding knob, or<br />

crown, which made it possible for pilots to set<br />

the time zone even when wearing thick gloves.<br />

This made it very popular with the pilots of the<br />

US Air Force because it was easy to operate even<br />

under difficult conditions. The crown and the<br />

knurled rim provide the characteristic appearance<br />

of this legendary watch. This watch,<br />

launched on the market in 1938, was at that<br />

time one of the few watches that had a date<br />

pointer on the dial. For a number of years now<br />

this watch has been produced by Swiss<br />

watchmaker Oris, a company that dates back<br />

around 100 years. Oris was able to defy the tidal<br />

wave of quartz watches and produces up-todate<br />

mechanical watches of top quality. Stainless<br />

steel case that is watertight to 50 m, armoured<br />

Plexiglass, quick correction and screwed stainless<br />

steel back with mineral glass window, luminous<br />

hands and indices using Super-LumiNova® pigments.<br />

MeisterSinger Single-hand watches – a relaxing way to tell the time<br />

The best things come to those who wait. This statement is proven by the striking<br />

products from the Münster watch manufacturer. The single-hand watch is<br />

the precursor to the modern, mechanical watch: the time is shown by just one<br />

hand, as was done centuries ago after the invention of the mechanical watch<br />

and can still be seen on older clock towers today. Single-hand watches only<br />

enable you to tell the time with an accuracy of up to 5 minutes. The people<br />

who use these watches are those who like to take their time about things.<br />

6 Polartec Fleece Blankets<br />

TIME magazine rated Polartec materials as one of the<br />

“100 best inventions of the 20th century” and thus put<br />

Polartec up there with major breakthroughs such as<br />

penicillin, the computer or the zip fastener. The fibres,<br />

made of 100% polyester, take up less than 1% of their<br />

weight in water, meaning that they cannot get wet. As<br />

opposed to lower-quality fleece products, Polartec does<br />

not pill nor lose its insulating properties after being<br />

washed many times. These blankets have a markedly<br />

better insulating capacity than wool and hence are lighter.<br />

They are suitable both for use indoors and outdoors.<br />

Washable at 40 °C. Beige edging. Supplied in the extralarge<br />

size 220 x 160 cm, making it ideal for use by taller<br />

people as <strong>well</strong>.<br />

The Australian Cooler Bag: lunch bags for the Australian sun<br />

These excellent products are the result of a simple idea: if wool can keep warm<br />

things warm, then it can also keep cold things cool. All the cooler bags are<br />

made of a water-repellent and robust waxed cloth. The lining is made of quilted<br />

Australian wool and, in addition, a foil has been sewn in underneath the<br />

waxed cloth so that condensation cannot get into the wool. Handles made of<br />

leather. The interior is closed off from the outside environment by a thick zip<br />

fastener. Using a normal cooling block, food can be kept cool for up to<br />

24 hours and at least for 6–12 hours. From a small wool processor in western<br />

Queensland.<br />

8 Everlight Twist Torch<br />

A torch that needs no batteries: by simply twisting the<br />

torch, the built-in generator produces electrical energy.<br />

This is stored in a capacitor which, in contrast to<br />

a battery, never corrodes and can be charged and<br />

discharged several 100,000 times. After just<br />

10 seconds of twisting, there is enough energy for<br />

10 minutes of light. The three built-in Nichia LEDs are<br />

virtually indestructible and have over 100,000 hours<br />

of life. Their light is focused by a precision lens made<br />

from acrylic. The Everlight consists of an extremely<br />

robust, splash-proof polycarbonate body which guarantees<br />

use in extreme and inclement conditions. Ideal<br />

for the car, the home or on a boat. Light visible up to<br />

1 km. 7,000 lux. Length 14.5 cm, weight 150 g.<br />

1 Laguiole Knives from “Forge de Laguiole”<br />

Originating 175 years ago in Laguiole in the Auvergne region, these knives of<br />

the same name quickly became an absolute must for every Frenchman. They<br />

represent the proverbial “savoir vivre” and French lifestyle in a way that virtually<br />

no other object does. The knives from the “Forge de Laguiole” all bear<br />

the quality label “Laguiole Origine Garantie”, which verifies compliance with<br />

specific quality criteria and that they indeed come from Laguiole. The blades<br />

are individually forged (not stamped out) from non-rusting T12 steel and hardened.<br />

The Laguiole knives we sell have so-called mitres and a spine made of<br />

brass, the hand-made handles are made either of olive wood or resin-impregnated<br />

laminated wood. Length 11 cm, length with blade folded out 20.5 cm,<br />

weight 80 g (with corkscrew). Resin-impregnated laminated wood handles –<br />

1 A place to keep your thoughts: LEUCHTTURM1917 Notebook<br />

There are many similar notebooks to these ones out there, and some falsely<br />

claim to be the original. That can’t be said of these books. The traditional<br />

company, with more than 90 years’ experience, has given these products a few<br />

extra features to raise them out of their everyday status, making them – in our<br />

view – the most sophisticated bound notebooks of all. All LEUCHTTURM1917<br />

notebooks have numbered pages, and at the start of every book there is a<br />

blank contents page. This enables you to find your notes easily at any time.<br />

And you can also include cross references within your notes (“see page XY”).<br />

The last 32 pages of every book are perforated, meaning that you always have<br />

a piece of paper with you if you want to pass on a note to someone. A set of<br />

several stickers for labelling the cover and spine is enclosed with all books –<br />

the spine labels are helpful for archiving. The largest book, called “Master”,<br />

has particularly attracted our attention. It is in oversize A4 format, which<br />

means that you can put A4 sheets of paper safely inside. The remaining features<br />

“Toiles de Jouy”<br />

After the ban that had been in place in France<br />

on the import and production of "Indiennes"<br />

printed cotton fabrics since 1686 was lifted by<br />

Louis XV in 1759, textiles from foreign<br />

merchants began to flow into the country. As a<br />

result of this, Christoph-Philipp Oberkampf<br />

moved to France from Württemberg and founded<br />

a fabric factory in Jouy-en-Josas in Île de<br />

France. The colourfully printed cotton fabrics,<br />

which were designed from 1783 by<br />

Jean-Baptiste Huet, one of the best-known<br />

artists of the day, achieved fame in Europe<br />

under the name "toiles de jouy" and remain to<br />

this day a symbol of 18th century rural life in<br />

France. The fabric we have used depicts a motif<br />

based on the very popular "Four Seasons"<br />

design from the 18th century.<br />

10 Maul Lever-Type Postage Scale<br />

A classic in the world of postage. This letter scale is one of the pendulum scales which function by means of<br />

a counterweight acting on a lever in the opposite direction to the weighing pan. The angle of the long beam<br />

arm changes until it reaches equilibrium. The scale adjusts itself to the null point by means of opposing levers.<br />

Two different divisions: on the one hand it is possible to measure precisely from 0–60 g and on the other hand<br />

you can measure from 0–250 g in 5 g steps. The Maul lever-type postage scale has brass fittings and a black<br />

metal base. The manufacturer gives a three-year guarantee on the postage scale. Weight 340 g, height 16 cm,<br />

weighing pan 9.5 x 7.7 cm, can weigh items up to 250 g.<br />

3 English College Scarf<br />

These brightly striped scarves have been manufactured by a textile company from<br />

with pride. Our collection features scarves based on the colour scheme rather<br />

than where they originate. Length 180 cm, width 21 cm. Pure new wool.<br />

1 Glengarnock Cord Trousers<br />

Cord trousers from Glenarnock with a flat front without pleats, two pockets on<br />

the sides and two back pockets. The fabric for these trousers is a robust, extremely<br />

soft cord made of pure cotton called Corduroy by Brisbane Moss. This<br />

famous weaver in Lancashire is one of the last quality manufacturers of this<br />

fabric. The fabric is with 8 “wale”, which means 8 ribs per inch. The lines are<br />

cut on the top to emphasise the brilliance of the colours. Weight of fabric<br />

470 g/sq m. Front zip and hook fastening. The trouser legs have no hem, must<br />

therefore be worn with continental or English leg lengths, with or without a<br />

collar. The width of the bands is given in inches, which is standard for jeans.<br />

Washable at 30 °C, not suitable for tumble drying, iron on the inside.<br />

Glengarnock, manufacturer of traditional country wear in the Scottish<br />

Kilbirnie, focuses on careful attention to detail. “At Glengarnock real tailoring<br />

skills still matter.” £ 129.00<br />

2 Pea Coats from Gloverall for Ladies and Men<br />

This jacket is an absolute classic, which has been used by seamen all over the<br />

world for <strong>well</strong> over a hundred years in a similar form. In France, similar jackets<br />

are known by the name Caban and in Germany they are known as Colani. The<br />

name comes from the Kiel tailors Berger & Colani, who provided the Kaiser's<br />

navy with these jackets since the end of the 19th century.<br />

The outer material is made of 75% wool and is wind-resistant thanks to the<br />

natural wool fat and the thickness of the material, and stays dry for a long time<br />

even in the rain. 25% nylon supports these qualities and helps the fabric retain<br />

its shape. When raised, the large collar also offers additional protection against<br />

the wind. It can be fixed upright with a band which can be buttoned on the<br />

collar crease – if the band is not needed it can be buttoned to the inside of the<br />

jacket out of the way. The men's model has an inside pocket and two slanted<br />

side pockets. The ladies’ version has two outside pockets. £ 249.00<br />

From Scotland:<br />

Torquato Lambswool Sweater<br />

Hawick, a small town in the southwest of Scotland, is a mecca for knitwear<br />

production in Great Britain. Our sweaters are made here by a company with a<br />

tradition of over 130 years. It is barely worth mentioning that we only use<br />

pure new wool rather than recycled quality wool. The remarkable softness of<br />

the wool lies in the exclusive use of first-class “first clip” lambs’ wool from<br />

Australia. This can only be collected when the sheep are shorn for the first<br />

time. The hair is still fine and elastic and the hair tips are rounded – in contrast<br />

to later shearings. This wool is spun to very thin threads<br />

in Scotland, which is then twisted with a second thread<br />

to make twine.<br />

This sweater made from two-ply Australian lambs’ wool<br />

is knitted “fully fashioned”, which means that the correct<br />

fit is already provided by the knitting pattern. The<br />

sweaters therefore sit <strong>well</strong> and keep their shape.<br />

Ribbed neckline and cuffs.<br />

Authentic belts for Jeans: Quick Release Belts<br />

The buckles of these belts made of solid brass are made<br />

by our English supplier based on the design of old firemen’s<br />

belts. The buckle had to be easy to open in an<br />

emergency with one movement, as the heavy equipment<br />

was fixed to the belt. Made of a piece of bridle leather,<br />

therefore very hard wearing and markedly more<br />

long lasting than stitched belts. Width 3.1 cm. Available<br />

in waist sizes 80–115 cm (5 cm intervals).<br />

9 Appenzeller Belts<br />

Even though this belt has been very trendy for years, it<br />

is actually a part of Swiss tradition. This craft, undertaken<br />

by Alpine farmers called the “Sennen”, has formed<br />

an integral part of the Appenzell culture for more<br />

than 200 years. These products are handmade from leather<br />

and metal fittings (metal plates with Alpine motifs).<br />

It used to be braces that were mainly produced and the<br />

more motifs (brass plates) the braces have the more<br />

affluent the wearer is deemed to be. The belts are made<br />

of black leather with decorative metal parts in solid<br />

brass plate with the Alpine ascent featuring shepherd,<br />

dog and cows. The belts are made in a “Sennen” production<br />

shop in Appenzell. The belts are also available in<br />

a narrower 3 cm and a wider 4 cm version with waist<br />

measurements of 75–110 (5 cm intervals).<br />

<strong>well</strong> <strong>chosen</strong>: English Bridle Leather Belts<br />

Each belt is made from one piece of saddle leather and the production takes<br />

place in a small leather-manufacturing company based in Worcestershire. As<br />

the process does not involve any stitching at the edges, the belts are exceedingly<br />

heavy-duty and last for much longer than stitched ones. The buckles are<br />

made of solid brass.<br />

3 The Broadway is a wide, sporty-looking belt, which is ideal with jeans, cords<br />

or khakis. The leather is only slightly tinted as Newmarket tan. Its appearance<br />

LACO Ties: made in Germany<br />

The company founded by the English merchant Charles<br />

Lavy in Hamburg in 1838 still focuses today on pure<br />

handicraft – and is consequently one of the last two of<br />

its trade in Germany. In 1900 LACO employed over 500<br />

workers in its workshops and counted even Kaiser<br />

Wilhelm II among its customers. The special thing about<br />

a LACO tie is the interlining. It consists of a fabric made<br />

from wool and cotton and is elastic. Because of it, the<br />

fibres can relax after untying. Tie material 100% silk.<br />

5 Lakeland Wellington Boots<br />

While the Scottish manufacturer Hunter has specialised<br />

more in rubber boots for hunting, fishing and<br />

other outdoor leisure activities, the English company<br />

Lakeland has focused on boots for farming and gardening.<br />

Lakeland boots are shaped like classic<br />

Wellington boots, or “<strong>well</strong>ies” for short, named<br />

after the inventor of the style, the Duke of<br />

Wellington. The turned-up toes, heel, buckle on the<br />

leg and the strong green colour are characteristic.<br />

Made of 100% natural rubber with jersey-cotton<br />

lining. Removable insole. Sizes: 5 (38 EU), 6 (39 EU),<br />

These warming sock liners, to be worn inside boots, get<br />

rid of the problem of slipping socks which always have<br />

to be pulled up again. They are made from warmthinsulating<br />

material and in <strong>well</strong>ingtons give enough protection<br />

from the cold on autumn and winter days (apart<br />

from with severe frost). Slit at the front for ease when<br />

putting on. You simply slide into them and with them<br />

into the boot. Sizes: 5 (38 EU), 6 (39 EU), 7 (40/41 EU),<br />

Torquato Waterproof Rainwear<br />

“Wear Millerain for sunshine and rain.” That's the slogan of British Millerain<br />

Co. Ltd in West Yorskhire, which has been England's leading manufacturer of<br />

waterproof fabrics since the 1880s. The fabric produced by British Millerain for<br />

our raincoats and pea coats harks back to an invention by the Scotsman Charles<br />

Macintosh, who in 1818 successfully inserted a layer of rubber between two<br />

cotton layers for the first time, making the first truly waterproof fabric – until<br />

then, people had normally used canvas steeped in linseed oil. Our fabric is<br />

made up of two layers of fine cotton twill with a waterproof membrane in between.<br />

The material is waterproof and windproof. Fabric weight 325 g/sq m.<br />

Washable to 40 °C, slow spin. Do not tumble dry, iron hot or dry clean.<br />

1 Waterproof Pea Coat<br />

Waterproof sailor's jacket made of navy blue British Millerain fabric. Like the<br />

warm woollen jacket it is based on, this pea coat reaches down to around the<br />

upper third of the thigh. To protect against the wind and rain, the lapel can be<br />

lifted up and buttoned down. Two outer pockets, one small inner pocket with<br />

zip and ventilation holes under the arms. Unlined, which makes the beige<br />

reverse of the outer fabric visible. Double-seamed in the areas under most<br />

stress, e.g. the sleeve seams. Available in sizes 38–50 and 40 long–46 long.<br />

item no. 900758 £ 249.00<br />

2 Waterproof Cotton Jacket<br />

Raincoat with a short cut reaching down to the middle of the thigh made of<br />

beige, waterproof British Millerain fabric. The origin of this raincoat shape<br />

goes back to riding jackets, first seen in the 18th century and known as redingotes,<br />

whose basic shape has survived unaltered today. The coat has a concealed<br />

button placket with horn buttons, a vent at the back, 2 angled pockets,<br />

a small inner pocket with zip and ventilation holes under the arms. Unlined,<br />

which makes the dark blue reverse of the outer fabric visible. Double-seamed<br />

in the areas under most stress, e.g. the sleeve seams. Available in sizes 38–50<br />

and 40 long–46 long.<br />

1 Galoshes 1: Overshoes from the USA<br />

“Galoshes” was originally an expression used in Vienna<br />

to mean overshoes made of rubber. Although this<br />

expression is used colloquially nowadays for all sorts of<br />

shoes or boots, it is hard to find rubber overshoes – even<br />

though they are very practical! You can take them everywhere<br />

with you, e.g. rolled up in a large coat pocket or<br />

even in your car. When it is rainy or muddy you can<br />

quickly put them on and just as quickly take them off<br />

again. This is why they are ideal for walking along<br />

slushy pavements to work, for example, or a great help<br />

for architects on building sites. Our galoshes come from<br />

the USA. Sizes: 6.5–8 (40–42 EU), 8–9.5 (42–44 EU),<br />

Everything said about the American galoshes above<br />

sole is sturdy and thick and especially durable. The pull<br />

tab at the heel makes this shoe easy to put on and take<br />

off. Sizes: 5 (38 EU), 6 (39 EU), 7 (40/41 EU), 8 (42 EU),<br />

Hats from James Lock<br />

James Lock & Co. is probably the most traditional British<br />

hat maker located in St James’s Street, London. It has<br />

been making hats for the royal family and other gentry<br />

since 1620. Lock also makes top hats, bowler hats and<br />

women's hats.<br />

3 James Lock Bush Hat<br />

This classic felt hat is primarily worn in the country<br />

when going for walks, horseriding, fishing or hunting,<br />

and also used to be seen on such occasions in the<br />

English colonies. It is ideal when you are out and about<br />

in the country in the rain and need to keep your hands<br />

free. The Bush hat is handmade from pure woollen felt<br />

and provides very effective protection against the rain<br />

for many hours at a time. This is enhanced by the 7 cm<br />

wide brim. If the hat has become damp, the felt shrinks<br />

slightly as it dries out. Nevertheless, its original size is<br />

soon restored when put on the head again. Hat band<br />

made of fine beige fabric. Available in sizes 6 3 / 4 –7 5 / 8<br />

(55–62 EU).<br />

Sebago Classic Loafer<br />

Sebago was founded in Maine, USA in 1946. The Classic Loafer, also known as<br />

the “Penny Loafer”, is the Sebago shoe par excellence. It has been made on the<br />

same lasts since the Forties. The particular feature about this shoe is not only its<br />

characteristic appearance but the interior: during the production process a piece<br />

of leather, which is sewn together at the heel, is knocked into shape on the lasts.<br />

Afterwards, a stretchable “welt”, a rubber strip, is hand sewn on to the upper<br />

leather. Then a foam rubber cushion is glued into the front part and the back<br />

part is stabilised using a steel insert. Finally, the leather sole is sewn directly onto<br />

the “welt”. The result: a shoe which is incomparable in fit, flexibility and wearing<br />

comfort. £ 189.00<br />

Torquato Academy: Calf Leather Half Brouge<br />

Made by a family-owned business which has been stitching shoes in<br />

Northampton since 1915. Torquato has commissioned this company to produce<br />

handmade leather semi brogue shoes. Special emphasis is placed on careful selection<br />

of the leather to ensure that it is soft. This means the shoes will be longlasting<br />

and comfortable to wear. It takes a good 6 weeks to produce a pair of<br />

Goodyear welt shoes as there are more than 200 steps from beginning to<br />

finish. Each shoe is unique. A semi brogue is the term used to describe the perforation<br />

pattern on the shoe. This style has a minimalist design, balmoral and<br />

cap toe with rosette. After the shoe has been worn, a wooden shoehorn should<br />

be inserted for at least one day.<br />

Chelsea Boots from R.M. Williams<br />

Chelsea boots which take their characteristic appearance from the elastic<br />

band which is worked into the ankle on both sides. This makes the boots comfortable<br />

to wear and easy to put on and take off. The leather of the boot leg<br />

is made of robust but very fine leather from one-year-old calves and the lining<br />

is also made of leather. All seams are finished with waxed thread and are then<br />

dipped in hot wax to seal them The heels are nailed from inside. These Chelsea<br />

boots can be worn with jeans or other casual wear, but also with a suit. Our<br />

boots from R.M. Williams are one of the only shoes of its kind, where the<br />

bootleg is made from a single piece of leather. The ridge on the instep is clearly<br />

recognisable – the leather is moulded into the later shape of the bootleg<br />

1 Docksides from Sebago<br />

This model is probably even more <strong>well</strong>-known<br />

than Sebago’s loafer. The name, Docksides, is<br />

synonymous with boating and sailing shoes.<br />

Besides hobby sailors and world-class professionals,<br />

who very much appreciate the non-slip<br />

soles and shoe comfort, the Docksides shoe has<br />

a whole host of fans even outside the world of<br />

water sports. Handsewn shoe in a genuine moccasin<br />

construction with white sole in order not<br />

to leave marks on boat decks. The soles have a<br />

wave profile and are made of a special combination<br />

of natural solid rubber and latex without<br />

any diluents, thereby preventing shoes<br />

from slipping on different ground surfaces. The<br />

leather shoelaces, which have been threaded<br />

through the eyelets, are not for decoration purposes<br />

– they allow the wearer to adjust the<br />

width of the shoe. Care with neutral leather<br />

dubbing. Available for ladies in sizes<br />

2 Bertl Classic Boots<br />

The double seam technique is a long established method<br />

of affixing the sole to the leather upper using double<br />

stitching. This technique was developed round about<br />

200 years ago for mountain farmers and woodsmen in<br />

the Alps who had to work high in the mountains under<br />

severe weather conditions. Schuh-Bertl is based in<br />

Munich and still manufactures these shoes today using<br />

traditional methods. At 3–3.5 mm thick, the upper leather<br />

is unusually thick and makes the boot very sturdy.<br />

As the lining in the heel is the first to rip, the boot is only<br />

lined at the front using calf leather. The heel is reinforced<br />

on the outside with a leather cap. The insole,<br />

which is the foundation of the construction, is made of<br />

ecologically tanned leather. This supports the foot. The<br />

outsole has a sturdy rubber profile which makes every<br />

step secure. It is waterproof and non-abrasive. A layer of<br />

felt has been inserted between the inner sole and outsole<br />

to absorb any shocks and insulate, as has an intersole<br />

made of rubber. Available in 6.5 (40 EU), 7.5 (41 EU),<br />

8 (42 EU), 9 (43 EU), 9.5 (44 EU), 10.5 (45 EU), 11 (46 EU).<br />

before assembly by fulling. This intricate process allows for a more elegant fit<br />

which fits the foot better and stops the leather buckling when walking. Chelsea<br />

boots made of fulled or unfulled leather are very different from one another. R.M.<br />

Williams from Adelaide in Australia have made a name for themselves since the<br />

1930s for their first-class riding and work boots. In the hard conditions of the outback<br />

R.M. Williams proved themselves and became a synonym for the best quality.<br />

We offer these welt-sewn Chelsea boots from R.M. Williams – these are known as<br />

“dress boots” to distinguish them from the rest. With leather sole or a synthetic<br />

sole (ideal for use outdoors).<br />

Shoe Trees<br />

You can easily extend the life of a good pair of leather shoes by not wearing<br />

them every day. Instead give them a day's rest and let them dry on a shoe-tree<br />

if possible so that the shoes stay in shape. If you use a shoe tree made of wood<br />

some of the moisture in the shoe can be absorbed by the shoe tree.<br />

These shoe trees can be adjusted to make your shoes a more perfect fit and<br />

even stretch shoes which are slightly too small. With holes at the front to<br />

allow air to circulate. Beech wood. Sizes 6–12 (40–47 EU).<br />

and the surroundings. Another important feature is that cedar is very absorbent.<br />

2 Luxury Tie Rack<br />

The best way to store a large tie collection – just hang the ties over the polished<br />

wooden bars, which are arranged in a cascade. There is room for a total of 44 ties,<br />

with plenty of space for them to recover from having been knotted. Also suitable<br />

for belts. The whole rack can be slid along its stable steel mounting, so you can pull<br />

1 Tie Rack<br />

In our view, this is the best way to store your ties.<br />

In recent years, a number of upmarket products have come on to the market –<br />

these are normally similar to coat hangers (preferably cedar, embellished with<br />

an attractive emblem) with brass prongs to hang the ties on. The problem<br />

is that the ties keep falling off! These products are not all they’re cracked up<br />

to be.<br />

This brilliant tie-holder can be screwed on to a side wall or the inside of your<br />

wardrobe door (screws included). By moving any one of the hooks, all 21 of<br />

them move out from the wooden bar and then it is easy to hang ties on the<br />

hooks or remove them. When you have finished, just push the hooks back<br />

against the bar with one easy movement. The ties then take up hardly any<br />

space, and will not fall off. Width 41 cm, height 7 cm, weight 370 g. Made of<br />

varnished beech wood.<br />

1 Set of Shoe Brushes<br />

If quality shoes mean a lot to you, then you should give<br />

them the best care possible and make them last longer.<br />

Although in advertising today they try to make you believe<br />

that just to spray your shoes or use an instant<br />

sponge polish occasionally is enough in the way of shoe<br />

care, purists still clean their shoes in the good oldfashioned<br />

way.<br />

Pre-cleaning brush 20.5 cm with bristles made from stiff<br />

leaf fibres of the agave plant.<br />

Deep shoe care for long life – for more than<br />

80 years – Saphir Medaille d’Or<br />

The Saphir Medaille d'Or care range was developed<br />

on the basis of this principle. At the<br />

1925 world exhibition in Paris, Saphir was<br />

awarded a gold medal for the high quality of<br />

its products – since then the brand has been<br />

extended to include the top-quality Medaille<br />

d'Or range. The recipe has never been changed,<br />

Saphir Medaille d'Or is produced in Charente in<br />

western France, as it was 80 years ago and is<br />

made only with natural ingredients. Regular<br />

application of Saphir Medaille d'Or helps<br />

extend the life of the leather, and therefore the<br />

shoes. Suitable for all smooth leather shoes.<br />

1 Saphir Shoe Care Cream<br />

A shoe cream made of different oils, waxes and<br />

coloured pigments. The high quality moisturisers<br />

soak deep into the leather and keep the<br />

structure soft. The fibres remain elastic and<br />

creases are reduced. Microscopic colour pigments<br />

refresh their appearance. The wax contained<br />

in the cream make it suitable for polishing<br />

and seal the surface. In contrast to soft<br />

water-based creams, this cream is a simple oil<br />

emulsion. Made of neat's foot and mink oil,<br />

carnauba and beeswax, balsam turpentine oil<br />

and colour pigments. Recommended use once<br />

per month. 100g glass container. Regular applications<br />

of a hard wax cream on shoe upper leather<br />

helps provide optimum protection against<br />

damp and dirt. To retain the elasticity and<br />

structure of the collagen fibres in the leather,<br />

the leather also needs adipose care products.<br />

4<br />

2<br />

This helps the leather retain its flexibility and reduce<br />

the tendency to crease or tear. Therefore shoes should<br />

also be treated with an adipose cream as <strong>well</strong> as a hard<br />

wax cream from time to time.<br />

2 Saphir Shoe-Shine Wax<br />

Optimum protection and water proofing properties, as<br />

<strong>well</strong> as lasting shine can only be achieved with a topquality<br />

hard wax cream. Those made by Saphir contain<br />

one of the hardest natural waxes – the wax of the<br />

Brazilian Carnauba palm – and beeswax. Fully soluble<br />

colour crystals create a particularly deep and lasting<br />

coloured shine when polishing. The workable consistency<br />

is achieved when non-resinous balsam turpentine<br />

oil is added. The oil should also remove old water marks<br />

and have a cleaning or stain removing effect. The<br />

Saphir shine wax is suitable for both a brush and a highgloss<br />

water based polish. If shoes are worn regularly<br />

they should be treated several times a month. 50ml tin.<br />

Regular applications of a hard wax cream on shoe<br />

upper leather helps provide optimum protection<br />

against damp and dirt. To retain the elasticity and structure<br />

of the collagen fibres in the leather, the leather<br />

also needs adipose care products. This helps the leather<br />

retain its flexibility and reduce the tendency to crease<br />

or tear. Therefore shoes should also be treated with an<br />

adipose cream as <strong>well</strong> as a hard wax cream from time to<br />

5 Burgol Leather Sole Oil 250 ml<br />

The leather soles of good quality shoes should be treated<br />

and its moisture ratio. This dramatically increases the<br />

life of the sole. Not suitable for glued soles. Delivered<br />

Docksides for Children and Adolescents<br />

This children's version of Sebago boater shoes has all<br />

the features that have made the “big” Docksides a<br />

popular classic: they can withstand long periods near<br />

water and on the beach without any trouble. They are<br />

stitched by hand like moccasins, their outer material<br />

and inner sole are made of seawater-resistant leather<br />

and they have an abrasion-resistant and non-slip rubber<br />

sole with wave tread pattern – all this makes them<br />

exceptionally robust and reliable. Tied with leather<br />

laces that go through eyelets all around the shoe, which<br />

also regulate the width. Condition with colourless<br />

dubbin.<br />

7 Child's Foot Measuring Device<br />

One problem when fitting children’s shoes is<br />

that the child cannot reliably tell you whether<br />

the shoe fits properly and it is impossible for the<br />

adult to know by feeling the foot in the shoe. To<br />

avoid growth problems with children’s feet and<br />

make sure they have enough space, it is important<br />

to buy exactly the right size shoes. This slide<br />

caliper will help you do just that by measuring<br />

the length of the child’s foot and calculating the<br />

correct size for the inside of the shoe, taking<br />

account of the space the toes need when walking,<br />

room for growth, and minimum height<br />

needed at the toe end of the shoe to avoid pressure<br />

on the big toe. For shoe sizes from 14 to 37<br />

(insert for sizes 30–37, not shown). At 14 x<br />

3.5 cm, the caliper will fit comfortably into a<br />

purse, so it is easy to take with you when you go<br />

to buy shoes.<br />

6 Singing Clock Farmyard yellow<br />

Every hour on the hour this clock makes the sound of a<br />

countryside animal. With this clock, children who do<br />

not know how to tell the time or understand its significance<br />

will soon take an interest in it. They will wait to<br />

hear the noise of a particular animal and ask how long<br />

it is until it's the cow's turn. Before very long, they will<br />

know that bedtime comes shortly before the cat. As a<br />

result, they will learn to tell the time much more quickly.<br />

A light-sensitive cell ensures the clock does not make<br />

any noise when it is dark. Animal noises recorded from<br />

real country animals. On/off switch for the sound requires<br />

3 x AA batteries (not included), Ø 34 cm, wall mounting,<br />

9 Boat-In-A-Bottle Kit<br />

Building ships in a bottle is a traditional sailor’s<br />

craft from the past. When becalmed or in port,<br />

seamen used to pass the time by making small<br />

of a bottle. The idea has not lost any of its fascination.<br />

The kit comes with instructions and all<br />

parts needed.<br />
