TORTURE COLLAR

870,00 €

Torture collar from the second half of the 18th century.

An interesting object from bygone times that reminds us of the dark past of humanity.

The collar was placed around a person's neck, preventing normal movement, lying down, and overall comfort. Similar collars were also used on dogs, but without a lock, only with a buckle. In this case, the collar served to protect a dog guarding livestock from potential wolf attacks. Dimensions: 30 x 8 cm Weight: 1.1 kg Considering its age, the collar is excellently preserved, with patina that speaks to its history. It includes a lock, but without a key.

VINTAGE LUCITE BRACELETS

Lucite is also known for its durability and adaptability, as well as its scratch resistance, ensuring that you can wear these bracelets for years and perhaps pass them down to future generations. You can wear the bracelets individually or create a dramatic look by stacking multiple colorful bracelets on your wrist. Dimensions: 8.5 x 7.5 cm Weight: 16 g The bracelets are excellently preserved.

ANTIQUE OIL LAMP

290,00 €

Mid-19th Century Oil Lamp

This intriguing hand-forged oil lamp was in use up until the invention of electricity. Typically, it was filled with rapeseed oil or whale oil. However, since the light produced by such fuels is weak, kerosene was often mixed in to strengthen the flame. Such lamps were mostly used as work lights. In our region, a similar lamp can be found in the Idrija museum, where it is presented as a miner's lamp. Abroad, its use is often associated with weavers, as weaving usually started when there was no more work in the fields and the days began to shorten, making the additional light very welcome. Today, this interesting oil lamp can be an attractive decorative piece, especially because of the rooster decorating the screw used to open the lamp for oil refilling and wick replacement. Of course, the lamp is still functional; just pour in the chosen fuel, and it's ready to light up your dark days and nights. Dimensions: 61 x 14 x 12 cm Weight: 1.5 kg The oil lamp is in excellent condition.
