Gump's Jade Magnifying Glass and Letter Opener
Located in Southbury, CT
A vintage (circa 1980s) Gump's San Francisco letter opener and magnifying glass pair created in gold-tone non-tarnish metal with hand-engraved floral details and with sleek, beautiful black nephrite jade handles. The pair come in their original pale gold brocade fabric pouch but I do not have the original box. This iconic pair of essential desk adornments are a must for the Gump's or jade collector. My grandmother had this same set plus another with green jade handles. I have always preferred the black handles, though. Classic Gump's, timelessly elegant.
Maybe you think you're not a magnifying-kind of person but I would beg to differ. You would be surprised by how useful an optically excellent (which this is) magnifying glass actually is. And you can create completely unique photos...

I bought this clock many years ago and it was New, Old Stock at the time. In fact somewhere I should have the original box for it. But, do not hold me to it as I have no idea where it actually is.
The Heuer Racing Clock is a dashboard chronograph that was first introduced in 1963. The clock was designed by Jack Heuer in collaboration with the Porsche design team. Jack Heuer wanted to create a clock that was both stylish and functional, and the Racing Clock was a huge success.
The Clock is housed in a large, 80mm diameter case that is made of durable stainless steel. The clock has a black dial with large, white numerals and hands that are easy to read at a glance. The clock also features a tachymeter bezel, which can be used to calculate speed and distance.

Arms of Prince of Wales
The Prince of Wales's feathers – Almost History
The coat of arms of the Prince of Wales is the official personal heraldic insignia of the Princes of Wales, a title traditionally granted to the heir apparent of the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, formerly the Kingdom of Great Britain and before that the Kingdom of England. Since Edward I awarded it to his son the future Edward II, the heir apparent to the English throne has been created with the title Prince of Wales. The history of the coat of arms is closely linked with those of the Royal coat of arms of England and the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom. However, as the noted antiquarian and heraldist Charles Boutell wrote in 1863, "The Arms of the Prince of Wales have a distinct individuality of their own, with which nothing ought to be directly associated".
History
The badge has no connection with the native Princes of Wales. Its use is generally traced back to Edward, the Black Prince (1330–1376), eldest son and heir apparent of Edward III of England. Edward bore (as an alternative to his differenced royal arms) a shield of Sable, three ostrich feathers argent, described as his "shield for peace", probably meaning the shield he used for jousting. These arms can be seen several times on his chest tomb in Canterbury Cathedral, alternating with his royal arms (the royal arms of King Edward III...
