Pair of Palais Royal Ring Stands Depicting Robinson Crusoe and Man Friday
About the Item
A very rare and fine Charles X period pair of mother of pearl and ormolu ring stands, depicting Robinson Crusoe and Man Friday. Set upon wooden bases with engraved mother of pearl, the figures of Robinson Crusoe and Man Friday depicted holding ormolu and mother of pearl umbrellas, with hooks to hang rings around the edge. Currently with lucky charms hanging. Robinson Crusoe and Man Friday were two characters of Daniel Defoe's 1719 novel. Robinson Crusoe names the man Friday, with whom he cannot at first communicate, because they first meet on that day. A superb and rare pair, especially as they are still together

Rare Handcolored Map of Isle de Juan Fernandes 'Robinson Crusoe Island', Chili
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique map titled 'Die Insel Iuan Fernandes in der Sudsee (..)'. This map depicts Robinson Crusoe, one of the Juan Fernández Islands.
Robinson Crusoe Island, formerly known as Más a Tierra, is the second largest of the Juan Fernández Islands. From 1704 to 1709, the island was home to the marooned sailor Alexander Selkirk, who at least partially inspired novelist Daniel Defoe's fictional Robinson Crusoe in his 1719 novel, although the novel is explicitly set in the Caribbean.

To reflect the literary lore associated with the island and attract tourists, the Chilean government renamed the place Robinson Crusoe Island in 1966. This map originates from a German edition of 'Voyage around the World...
