1770ref. 97Birmingham or Sheffield 1770. Oblong folio. 390 x 220 mm. 15 1/4 x 8 3/4 inches. Vellum spine over decorative blue paper wrappers paper label with title in Italian on upper board and ink title in Italian on spine. Paper stock toned with age a few leaves with staining in the margin otherwise in good condition. Silversmith model book containing 80 full-page engravings of candles sticks and holders candelabra pitchers plates salt and pepper shakers serving utensils silverware and other household pieces. Each image is beautifully and careful engraved with rich detail and ornamentation. Each includes a printed product number as well as one in ink with a different item number and a price. Although there is no title-page or signatures of engravers this large sales catalogue appears to be English as some of the engravings have English words of explanation engraved in the text. The binding is definitely Italian and the paper label is in an Italian hand. The watermark is a "fleur de lis" pattern suggesting an international company manufacturing the silver. There were only a few English companies with the capacity to export at this time including silver works in Sheffield and Birmingham both of which by 1770's had established networks of dealers selling their wares across the continent. This catalogue with specific Italian connections is very unusual and suggests the scope of the business had reached export capacity by the third quarter of the century. The most important Italian silver makers at this time were Giardini of Rome and Venuti of Naples. . unknown books

ref. 73918vo 235 x 168 mm. orig. blue semi-stiff wrappers modern stitching. Japan: 1853-54. Silver was mined at the Ikuno Ginzan Ikuno Silver Mine from the 9th century until 1973 and was an important source of income for the central government. Lead copper zinc and gold were extracted along with silver. There were a number entrances to the mine and more than 20000 local residents were in some way involved in the mining industry. In the 19th century the mines were running deficits as they were not producing enough silver. This is a fascinating official record maintained by Chudayu or Chiwaki Shiraishi 1817-87 of the loans made by the bakufu to the Ikuno and nearby Ase silver mines to improve their efficiency and production levels. Shiraishi was at this time working for the bakufu employed as deputy officer of the two silver mines overseeing their operations and finances. Later during the Meiji Restoration Shiraishi became well known as a scholar of Wagaku Japanese studies and as a journalist. This manuscript written in a very beautiful hand contains detailed accounts of the series of loans made by individual members of the bakufu to each mine with names of lenders size of loans interest rates purpose of the loans apparently most of the money went to pay the salaries of the miners etc. The signature of Shiraishi appears on the first and final leaves. In fine condition; some well-repaired worming touching text. Preserved in a chitsu. Stamp with release stamp of the Nagoya Eirin Kyoku the Forest Management Division of the Nagoya City government. unknown books

At end in trans.: “Adachi Ginrei 足立銀嶺 the artist…copied by Ōju 應需 1938.” A richly illustrated scroll in fine colors including metallic pigments such as silver of the mining activities at the Ikuno silver mine. Silver was mined at the Ikuno Ginzan Ikuno silver mine from the 9th century until the late 20th century and was an important source of income for the shogunate. There were several entrances to the mine. The main tunnel was 2.6 km long and extended 1 km deep. Lead copper zinc and gold were extracted along with silver. More than 20000 residents were in some way involved in the local mining industry. One of the most productive periods for the mine was the 18th century when in some months the production of silver reached about 562 kilograms. This is a long and fine scroll concerning the mine with many scenes. The beginning images depict a procession on the second day of the year with workers and government officials making offerings for good fortune. Following are scenes of the several entrances to the mine offices and storage facilities and miners preparing to enter the mine carrying baskets. Remarkably a long 755 mm. shikake 仕掛㑠flap “trick picture” is attached and present underneath the scroll itself depicting the mine shafts and activities of the labor. On the scroll itself there are two deliberately cut-away sections each suggesting the shikake below: one of an entrance to the mine and another of a grilled escapeway for the mine’s water. This is followed by scenes of laborers in the river sifting away impurities; various smelting and refining processes and furnaces including an image of the nanban process; government officials observing and keeping records of output using the abacus; liquid silver flowing out of the furnace; officials weighing and recording the finished product; the transportation of the silver to Osaka in a procession with dignitaries in a palanquin laborers and horses carrying the silver the trademarks of silver merchants are present on the horses’ saddles; the reception of the silver at Osaka by officials; the treasury inside Osaka Castle; and finally an extended scene of festivities at the silver mine following the successful delivery of the silver. Each segment of the scroll has a manuscript title and text describing the following scenes and within each image are many labels giving titles functions and mining terminology.
