decorated with nickel and came
together with an ebony case.

A valuable thing doesn’t need to be
large. Sometimes a small size can
contribute to the image of a tailored
item, such as this copper fob. It
serves not only to keep your keys
and other small-sized belongings
but also as a mini-telescope, which
is by the way tremendously good. At
least, it will always help you to read
a small text on a visiting card or a
map.

In great days of old when every
single sea trip would bring the
new geographic discoveries, every
captain was becoming both a
natural scientist and a geographer
by no will of his own. He would
make entries about water and air
temperature, humidity, tension
and position data in ship’s journal.
And what helped him to do it was
this original meteorological station
containing 4 copper devices
roomed on one box.
PAGANEL

The major timing device on board

clock there always was a time
bell to be hit every time when all
the sand hailed on the lower part
of the clock which was turned
around after. Watchkeeper’s task
was ensuring timely turning of
the clock around so that the time
on board wouldn’t go wrong.

Long ago at the dawn of the
automobile manufacturing this
thing was crucially important. Lives
of the pedestrians, passengers of
horse-drawn carriages and owners
of those few vehicles which already
had it, stood upon this device.
However, klaxon can be of use today
as well – you can always hear it and
it attracts attention. The larger the
klaxon is - the louder is the sound!

about and practice whenever you
want.

Ship’s bell IRY-15, 15 cm /Ship’s bell IRY-10, 10 cm
Copper watch bell or ship’s bell is
an inherent and antique attribute
of the ship, its clock and alarm
system. In the hour of danger it
beats the alarm, when it is foggy
it gives signals to other vessels
and all the rest time it beats the
time bells. Combined in different
ways single and double time bells
signal the time. Today they are
still used on board the vessels.

A good dress or an
accessory is a card of
invitation. It’s the accepted
truth. That’s why the pirates
and captains tried to accent
their virtue or fury with the
shape of their accessories,
such as this reading-glass
designed in the shape of a
dagger with sheath.

By the beginning of World War I
the German army had the helmets
Pickelhaube in the field. However,
this type of helmets was not a piece
of armor, but rather a distinguishing
symbol of officers and command
personnel. Eventually it became
clear that a helmet is not a
distinguishing symbol, but the vital
necessity. That’s why they started to
armor the staff with Kaiser Helmets
as well.
KAISER HELMET

In the parlance of our time,
Centurion was the army corps
commander, who naturally had
distinguishing symbols. Thus,
Centurion would always have an
exquisite colorful comb.
CENTURION

The Roman warriors were

One of the few amusements on
board in course of a tiresome
marine trip is brewing some

a friend. But drinking out of
what? Two small copper cups
would ideally suit for that.
They are marked apart by high-
temperature capability and
resistance to corrosion. The
cups should be kept in a special
