Antique Chasuble Religious Vestment Embroidered Textile, 3 Pieces
Located in Antwerp, BE
Three beautiful early 19th century religious Christian choir cap or chasubles for priest, woven with golden metallic wires, and beautiful floral design.These chasubles were used in the church as choir uniforms for special Catholic occasions.
Roman style Cope made of a high quality fabric. The cope is finished with a golden fabric tape and fringe. The clasp closing in the front regulates the size on the neck.
The choir cap, choir mantle or vesper mantle (in Latin pluviale, cappa or mantum) is a wide liturgical vestment that hangs down to the feet and is worn by clergy.
The choir cap has a choir cap closure or agraaf, varying from a simple hook to richly decorated goldsmithing, and a carved hood (in the Netherlands: shield) on the back. This robe is worn by priests, deacons and subdeacons of the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican Church at certain ceremonies such as the Hours, the Asparagus me, during the Praise and Sacrament processions. In the Lutheran churches of Scandinavia, the choir cap is also still worn, even by the pastor during the Eucharist/Lord's Supper. The choir cap has more or less the shape of a semicircle.
Well-known examples of choir caps can be found in the Netherlands in the collection of Museum Catharijneconvent in Utrecht.
Use in liturgy
The choir cap differs from the chasuble in that it has the shape of a mantle with a closure at the front.
In the new form of the Roman Rite (Novus Ordo Missae), the choir cap is no longer worn during Mass: the appropriate vestments are then the chasuble (priest) and the dalmatic (deacon). The tunicella (subdeacon) is also worn only in the traditional form of the Roman Rite. In this Tridentine rite there is the use of the assistant priest who does wear a choir cap during the (solemn) mass (with assistance). The choir cap is also worn in that rite when the faithful are sprinkled with holy water during the Asparagus me or the Vidi aquam before the mass of the students of the faith.
When the holiest of all is placed in the monstrance, the choir cap and stole are white. For the hours (divine office...

Omas 1997 18-Karat Gold Return to the Motherland Limited Edition Fountain Pen
Located in Weesp, NL
New Return to the Motherland 18-karat gold 1997 limited edition fountain pen. After 150 years of the British Union Jack waving over Hong Kong, this influential territory returns to its Motherland, China in July 1, 1997. From a Historic perspective, we cannot ignore the worldwide significance of this event. Authorized by the Association for Celebration of Reunification of Hong Kong with China, Omas creates a magnificent commemorative collection with a prestigious and emblematic design.
This distinguished writing instrument, New Old Stock never used, shows distinctive aspects of both Hong Kong and China in 18-karat gold. The cap displays treasured symbols of both Hong Kong and China, with the Bauhinia flower encircled by the words "Return to the Motherland" enameled in the original red color of the Association's official logo. The clip is embellished in the same hue by a thin linear element reminiscent of basic calligraphy. The band around the cap synthesizes the Great Wall of China, one of the most recognized monuments on this earth, the OMAS logo emerging from one of the Wall's majestic gates, and the 4 ideograms meaning "Return to the Motherland" in Chinese. Comes with the original Omas Return to the Motherland inkt.
The barrel of the pen follows this theme of combining Hong Kong and Chinese motifs. Sculpted in to the metal sheath of the barrel, two Chinese dragons, mother and child, allude to the relationship between Hong Kong and China and support the emblem of their unity, the pink Chinese dolphin.
The OMAS 1997 18 karat gold 063/200 Edition is comprised of 200 fountain pens and features an 18-karat gold calligraphic nib inlaid with a dragon head and engraved with the words "Hong Kong 1997...

Cartier High Jewelry Exhibition Coffee Table Book, 1997
Located in New York, NY
CARTIER 1900 - 1939
Paris, London, New York.
This special hard-cover book was published in honor of the exhibition, 'Cartier 1900 - 1939', held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, from April 2, 1997, through August 3, 1997, and the British Museum, London, from October 3, 1997, through February 1, 1998. This exhibition was organized jointly by the two museums.
Foreword by: Dr. Robert G. W. Anderson, Director, British Museum
"The firm of Cartier is widely recognized as one the world's greatest designers and manufacturers of jewellery and objects d'art. This exhibition is timed to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the founding of the company in Paris in 1847."
Preface: Judy Rudoe, Department of Medieval and Later Antiquities, British Museum
"Previous exhibitions devoted to Cartier have encompassed the entire period of the firm's history, from 1847 to the present. The aim of this exhibition is to take a fresh look at a more closely defined period, from around 1900, when the firm's distinctive style becomes identifiable, to the end of the 1930s, which saw a dramatic change of style that led to a quite different aesthetic."
A gorgeous exhibition book highlighting the first four decades of the 20th century when the renowned Paris-based firm known as Cartier expanded to London and New York. Specially taken photographs present a breathtaking array of necklaces, bracelets, brooches, rings, as well as cigarette cases, clocks, and objects d'art. 450+ illustrations, 350 in full color. A great piece to start a collection, add to one, display on a coffee table, library shelf, etc.

Mid-Century Modern Cabinet Console Record Player attributed to Ico Parisi design
By Ico Parisi
Located in Vigonza, Padua
This rare 1940s record player cabinet by LESA (Laboratori Elettrotecnici Società Anonima), Milan, represents a refined fusion of Italian craftsmanship and early modernist design. The piece features:
A solid wood frame veneered in exquisite walnut burl, with striking natural grain patterns that add depth and character.
Ebonized trim that highlights the clean geometry and subtle curves of the cabinet.
Slender, tapered legs typical of Italian furniture design of the period, lending the piece a light, elegant stance.
A functional 78 rpm turntable integrated into the cabinet, with original metal and bakelite components. The mechanism is in working condition.
A drop-front door that conceals the turntable when closed, preserving the cabinet’s sleek aesthetic.
A lower shelf suitable for storing records or accessories.
LESA, founded in 1929 in Milan, was a leading Italian producer of phonographs, radios and hi-fi components. The company was known for combining technical innovation with stylish furniture integration, making pieces like this a hallmark of mid-century Italian domestic design.
🌟 Why acquire this piece
Functional art: This cabinet is not only a piece of furniture, but also a working vintage audio device, providing authentic 78 rpm playback in its original form.
Historical value: An original example of LESA’s craftsmanship from the 1940s — a brand that was once a market leader in Italian hi-fi.
Aesthetic appeal: The combination of walnut burl, ebonized details and streamlined form makes it a perfect fit for Art Deco, mid-century modern, or eclectic interiors.
Conversation piece: Its rare combination of furniture and audio technology will attract attention and admiration in any setting.
Investment: Well-preserved vintage audio furniture by noted manufacturers is increasingly sought-after by collectors and interior designers.
