  • Making Gravers by William R
    WEAR YOUR SAFETY GLASSES FORESIGHT IS BETTER THAN NO SIGHT READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING Making Gravers By William R. Smith William R. Smith is well known in the field of clock making. He has recently designed a T-rest for the Sherline lathe that makes it possible to hand turn parts using a tool called a “Graver”, which is a common technique in watch- and clock making. This technique is also used in instrument making and modelmaking for turning special shapes like ball ends without having to grind a specially shaped cutter for the job. Mr. Smith’s credentials include a degree in mechanical engineering as well as FBHI (Fellow, British Horological Institute), FNAWCC (Fellow, National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors), CMC (Certified Master Clockmaker), CMW (Certified Master Watchmaker) and CMEW (Certified Master Electronic Watchmaker.). He has published several books and videos on clock making which will be of interest to anyone wishing to learn more about hand turning techniques or about making clocks. CAUTION: Use gravers carefully. Hold work materials with a and ruin them, all sharpening must be done by hand on a collet. Do not use gravers with a 3-jaw or 4-jaw chuck. A graver bench stone or a special wet grinder. which is inadvertently pushed into a spinning chuck jaw can be The gravers to be described here do not suffer this problem. flung from your hands. See T-rest instructions for further cautions Though harder than high carbon steel gravers and slightly and turning techniques. more prone to chip, they can be reshaped at the bench grinder Carbide Gravers quickly and without harm provided one does not let them I have often been asked to explain why I seem so unimpressed go red or cool them in water during the shaping process.

COMPLETE DIRECTIONS FOR USING ALL THE LATEST TOOLS, ATTACHMENTS AND DEVICES FOR WATCHMAKERS AND JEWELERS BY HENRY G. ABBOTT ILLUSTRATED WITH 288 ENGRAVINGS C HidAGO: Ge&. K. Hazlitt & Co., PUPUSHBIIS, Copyrighted 1898, by Geo. K. Hazlitt & Co. PREFACE. THE first edition of this work was published in 1893 and met with an unexpected and unprecedented sale, and a second edition was placed upon the market in less than ten months. So much new matter was added that it was found necessary to reset the entire work in smaller type in order to keep the volume within the price at which it was originally placed on the market. It is the first and only book, of which the author has any knowledge, which illustrates and describes modern American tools for the watchmaker and jeweler. The ambitious workman is always in search of knowl- edge, in search of new ideas, new tools and new methods. Patient study, constant practice and ambition are requisite to become pro- ficient in any art. The demand for skilled workmen is constantly increasing, and a person wishing to thoroughly master any art, must be to a certain extent capable of self instruction. To be proficient in any art a man must not be deft of touch alone, but the head must also play its part.

  • Tiara Pair of Earrings in Chinoiserie Style
    1 1. Italy or France Tiara Gold and coral, about 1817 Purchased with funds given by Rita Barbour Kern, 1996.27 French Neoclassicism revived the fashion for wearing a tiara, a head ornament based on an ancient Greek diadem. Tiaras of varying degrees of intrinsic value were worn by every woman from the middle classes to royalty. Coral, which was believed to posses protective powers, was often used in jewelry for children and young adults. A portrait painted by Luigi Bernero in 1817 of Maria Teresa of Savoy (1803– 1879) shows the 14-year-old Italian princess wearing a hair ornament almost exactly like this tiara. Most coral in Europe came from the sea around Naples and nearby Torre del Greco. In the 19th century coral jewelry became a fashionable souvenir. This was partly because people could travel more once the Napoleonic wars had ended in 1815, but also due to the growing popularity of Luigi Bernero (Italy, 1775–1848), Maria Teresa di Savoia. Oil on canvas, naturalistic jewelry in the 1850s. about 1817. Palazzo Reale, Turin, Italy 2. and pagoda-shaped elements of these earrings reflect the England period’s romantic taste for the Far East, known as chinoiserie Pair of Earrings in (sheen-WAH-zer-ee). Chinoiserie Style Pierced earrings were a sign of maturity. The first pair of earrings was usually given to a young girl in England at Silver, gold, diamonds, pearls and rubies, age 16, when simple ‘top-and-drop’ pearl earrings were considered to be more appropriate for a young, unmarried about 1820 girl.

  • Dressed to Kill: Parmigiani
    Collection | 75 Dressed to Kill Parmigiani’s dazzling new ladies’ collection Maria Doulton 2 First it was the Bugatti watch with its crazy vertical movement set into a crystal tube; then the gem-set Kalpas and the flame-red dials seen last year. But this was all a warm-up it seems, as Parmigiani Fleurier has now taken a giant leap in both brand identity and production volume, launching a broad collection of women’s watches that sizzle with colour, diamonds and daring shapes. Not insignificantly, some for the first time at Parmigiani contain quartz movements. Despite the international press’ intial scepticism, QP is delighted to find that Parmigiani’s irresistible charm has remained intact. Parmigiani Fleurier is currently producing around Coinciding with this big announcement was the 4,000 watches a year, but with the introduction maiden voyage of the bright orange Parmigiani of its new ladies’ collections, production levels Fleurier balloon at the Château-d’Oex International could rise to around 10,000 pieces over the next Balloon Festival.
