Antique W. & L.E.Gurley Surveyor's Transit
on Oak Tripod |
|
|
|
|

Ship From Vista, CA
|
|
We understand from the wife of this gentleman that, although an antique, her husband used this transit to survey a parcel of land in Fallbrook where they built a home some years ago, so we assume it is in good working order. It appears to be very clean and to not have withstood any abuse.
Physical: For display purposes, the transit on the tripod stands approximately 72"h. The scope is 10.25" in length. The larger end of the scope is approximately 1.75" in diameter. The oak base on which the tripod sits is approximately 25.375" on a side.

Antique Surveyor's Telescope, c. 1900
on Collapsible Wood Tripod |
|
|
|
|

Ship From Vista, CA
|
|
 |
|
From the estate of a local engineer who had many clocks and "technical tools" and scientific instruments.
Physical: The telescope is 40" long. The eyepiece at the end (left) is 1.5" in diameter; the scope end (above) is 2.5" in diameter. It stands approximately 64" with legs fully extended. The telescope lifts off the tripod of oak or perhaps hickory.
Comments: This exact same telescope sold on eBay on March 14 for this same price PLUS a whopping 22% hammer fee, for a grand total of $549. We are a lot less expensive for the same exact item... and a heckuva lot easier to deal with than the eBay hassle.

Ancient Asian Rice Scoop
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
Years ago we found this remarkable piece and bought it with the idea of having a dried flower arrangement put into the body and hanging it in our home. A clock got there first and this wonderful piece of history has been languishing, just waiting for a new home... like yours. A quick trip to Michael's for silk flowers and you'll have what you need for a spectacular wall piece in your home or office... or let them do the work for you!
If you look closely at the enlarged photos you will see the aging and patina on this piece. In addition, note, on the bottom, how the front and back ends are a bit worn... from the scoop rubbing on the bottom of the supply container (or ground) over the course of many, many years of hard work.
The handle on the bottom swivels, so a person put one hand on the front handle and one on the back, and then went to work to move rice from a supply container to perhaps a home-sized container.
There is a pretty Asian-themed brass hanger already mounted, so it's ready to hang... and the price is absolutely right! Heck, maybe you could use it as a place to put your bills!

Carpets...
We deal primarily in antique clocks and mechanical music devices. Occasionally a consignor asks us to represent other items for them. We're proud to offer you the following carpets, all of which have just been professionally cleaned by an Oriental carpet company.
They were evaluated and confirmed as authentic by the same firm. All but one of the carpets below are 100% hand-tied wool. Check Out the Silky Turkish Prayer Rug: Way Lucious!
Summary PDF with all fifteen carpets.
The information presented here is that which was provided to us by the consignor. No other representations are made regarding the carpets other than stated below. The consignor has paperwork for many of the carpets from their parents' estate. Where applicable, copies of such paperwork will be provided at the time of sale. The carpets are all presently in our possession and located in our So. CA office.
The carpets in this collection were purchased over the past thirty-five or so years both in the U.S. and overseas by the consignor's parents. All carpets are in excellent condition and will be a treasure for years to come; you can bet your Alladin's lamp on that!

Note that the large format photos may take substantially longer to download. As you review this page, please note that the thumbnail-sized photos do not do justice to the vibrant colors of these carpets.
Finally, on some of the carpet photos the upper end appears darker... this has only to do with the lighting at the time took the photos. Both ends are like the lower end of the photos.
