ALFRED DUNHILL Paris 1936 Art Deco Savory Petrol Pocket Lighter In .925 Sterling
By Alfred Dunhill
Located in Miami, FL
The Savory lighter designed by Alfred Dunhill.
This is a rare petrol pocket lighter, created in Switzerland by La Nationale for the Alfred Dunhill Company in Paris, back in the 1936. This semi-automatic full-size lighter is the iconic and popular Savory model, crafted with art deco patterns in solid .925/.999 sterling silver and decorated with engine turned barley patterns. This very early Dunhill lighter is highly collectible. This model was originally marketed with two names, The Savory in France and The Handy in the rest of the world
Brand: Dunhill-Paris.
Model: Savory Semi-automatic, full size.
First Produced: 1936.
Material: Solid .925 Sterling silver.
Weight: 56.2 Grams, (36.03 Dwt).
Measurements: 50 mm by 34 mm by 12 mm (1.97 x 1.34 x 0.47 Inches).
Hallmarks: Stamped with the maker's mark, the mark for the assay of the silver and signed in full as follow, "ALFRED DUNHILL PARIS FAB. SUISSE STERLING MECAN AD SAVORY BREVETTE No-806949".
Alfred Dunhill
He inherited his father’s London saddlery in 1893. Following the increase in motor car ownership, Alfred developed the business to include motoring accessories, which he called ‘Dunhill’s Motorities’. This included goggles, timepieces, picnic sets, and leather coats, and it wasn’t long before the brand became associated with men’s general motoring attire. They opened two shops in Mayfair and had a catalogue of over 1300 items. Between the 1904 and 1905, Dunhill introduced their ‘Windshield Pipe’, to help drivers combat the effect of wind and travel on their ability to smoke. This marked both the end of the ‘motorities’ focus and their entry into the world of smoking ephemera, and they shortly opened their first tobacconist in 1907 on Duke Street. The proximity to several esteemed Private Members Clubs around the Mayfair, St James’ area ensured that the venture was a success. (From Nicholas Wells With Thanks).
Literature: Blei-Bottoni, The Dunhill Petrol Lighter "A Unique Story", Unique SRL 2004 first edition. Figure-500 Pp-256-259 for this model illustrated in several materials and finishes.

Caravaggesque Oil on Copper "Flagellation of Christ" Baroque Sicilian, 17th Cent
By (After) Caravaggio
Located in Milano, IT
Splendid 17th-century Italian painting by unknown artist, but certainly a follower of Caravaggio, relying on style and drawing.
The painting has a very beautiful gilded wooden frame, with a subtle greek with spheres and an overlying rectangular frame with sinuous flowers on each corner, very elegant and beautiful.
The painting depicts one of the most depicted religious scenes ever, the scourging of Christ, and is entirely done in oil on copper.
The scourging of Jesus is an episode narrated in the Gospels (Mk15:15-16; Mt27:26-27; Lk23:16-26; Jn19:1-17[1]).
Scourging is a flogging, particularly bloody, by means of sticks, rods or cat-o-nine-tails, the latter instrument consisting, in the Roman typology, of a short stick to which were secured several strings ending in metal claws, leads and bone splinters that caused tremendous lacerations and fractures to the tortured person. Chains are used in this scene, both to immobilize Jesus Christ and to flog him, as we can see in the upper right hand of the scourger.
According to some personal research, it turned out that the actual scourging of Christ was mostly depicted at the column, while this Christ is on the ground, so presumably Christ here is scourged during the Way of the Cross at one of those stages where he fell.
The painting has a very dark coloring, which is why this painting is believed to faithfully follow Caravaggio's style of dry, authoritarian brushstrokes. The painting shows a figure agonizing on the ground that continues to receive beatings and floggings of all kinds, representing Christ; his face is crucified in a loquacious expression of pain, he turns his eyes to heaven as if to invoke God, but at the same time those same eyes admonish the wickedness and arrogance inherent in humanity.
Christ has one hand resting on the ground in the act of holding himself, while the other takes a completely unnatural stance against the barren ground. His body appears hardened to wanting to parry the blows, his legs are curled up on his knees as he takes kicks from the soldier above him. Christ is depicted pinned down from the neck with a very large and strong black iron bolt held by the other soldier. The soldier on the right in the foreground wears a one-shoulder tunic with an orange tunic and blue pants. On his feet he wears gray shoes, at his waist he has a belt with an iron helmet...

Asia Minor and Provinces: A Roman Empire Map from Spruner-Menke Atlas, 1880
Located in Langweer, NL
This authentic map of the 19th century, titled "PONTUS ET BITHYNIA, ASIA, LYCIA ET PAMPHYLIA, GALATIA, CAPPADOCIA, SYRIA, CRET, CYPRVS," details the regions of Asia Minor and surrounding territories during the Roman Empire.
The map is interesting for a number of reasons:
1. **Comprehensive Detail**: It covers a wide range of regions that played significant roles in ancient history, from the cultural crossroads of Asia Minor to the strategic island of Cyprus.
2. **Geographical Information**: It includes detailed topographical features such as mountain ranges, river systems, and coastlines, illustrating the complex geography that influenced ancient political and military strategies.
3. **Historical Context**: The map reflects the Roman administrative organization of these provinces, which were critical for trade, military campaigns, and cultural exchange within the empire.
4. **Inset Maps**: The presence of inset maps for Lycia, Ionia, and Asia Minor provides focused details on regions that had substantial historical significance due to their cultural heritage and geopolitical importance.
5. **Latin Labels**: The use of Latin in the map’s labels and descriptions adds to the historical authenticity and would have served as a scholarly reference for 19th-century academics.
6. **Ancient Civilizations**: This area was the cradle of numerous ancient civilizations and the map likely includes cities of ancient Greek...
