History of the clock from its origins to the 16th century, The origins No mechanical clocks seem to exist before the fourteenth century, but several mentions in manuscript sources reveal some of the early history of the clock. The Latin word horologium, horologia, derived from the Greek [ὡρα, time and λέγειν, to say], has been used since Roman antiquity to refer to all time-indicating devices, but the use of this word for all time-measuring instruments hides from us the true nature of their mechanisms. The hydraulic clock A hydraulic clock is an ancient type of clock, which tells the time by allowing a liquid in a container to flow through a small hole. From the beginning, in ancient times, the liquid used was water, hence the name water clock. Later, mercury clocks could be found, especially in Arabic and Chinese writings, but this seems to be anecdotal. The first hydraulic clocks evolved from the simple clepsydra (see the France 2 television game show), to which a more or less sophisticated time indication was added (essentially a graduated scale); over the centuries, we have encountered different types of hydraulic clocks, monumental or not, with sophistications to animate skits, for example, or to strike a precise time.

Jewellery box with top 10...

Others see in them the mark of the Templars or the Freemasons who used these containers to conceal compasses, mallets, small trowels, crosses and cords. "In any case, the existence of jewellery boxes is clearly attested as early as ancient Rome where, in families, the woman was the custodian of the particular seal of the house which served to seal the cases containing the precious objects. Indeed, as a Ladies' Manual from 1833 reminds us, precious stones and gold jewellery must be perfectly protected from humidity and preserved from any dirty or greasy contact: "It is advisable to rub them from time to time with a piece of white or chamois leather"and then place them in the "jewellery box". In French, the word "écrin", synonymous with "boîte à bijoux" (jewellery box), is originally derived from the Latin word "crines", meaning "hair", and was used to preserve souvenirs made of hair. Later on, the use of Jewellery boxes was extended to include all the useful and necessary accessories for the embellishment of the head: earrings, necklaces and combs. Nowadays we add bracelets, chains, rings, etc. " The item we present to you is made of faux leather in a rectangular format to escape the standardisation of jewellery boxes, "Made in China". You have the opportunity to find decorations for almost every imaginable occasion: Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, birthdays, and of course we can apply your photo on the lid of this jewellery box. Just choose the jewellery box with the desired decoration.

Coloured mug with number...

The progress of human beings has been made through multiple small changes in the uses and ways of acting. One of these changes is undoubtedly the way of consuming, the utensils and objects used, as we have previously mentioned in our articles on mugs. Kitchen items have evolved over time according to cultures and needs. The mug is one of those famous instruments of our daily life that have a history and whose usefulness is no longer in question. The mug is now tending to be rivalled by the mug, which is a large, much more fashionable cup used without a saucer. A mug is a large cylindrical container with a handle, used without a saucer, which is equivalent in appearance to a cup and is used for drinking or measuring in Europe and Quebec, and only for drinking hot liquids in North America. A mug can also be made of clay, glass or enamelled metal. Its use varies from region to region and it can be decorated and personalised as desired. Mugs can be of different colours, quite usual and simple, fluorescent, flashy etc. sometimes with patterns or a colour inside the mug which can sometimes be very varied A mug has the singularity of being able to be customised according to one's taste and wishes. They are also available in different sizes and formats.

Emergency Doctor's Kit

This children's first aid kit contains standard medical equipment and is realistic and virtually identical to what is found in many first aid services, doctors' surgeries and doctors' offices.

Becoming a doctor is often one of the jobs that children dream of doing when they grow up.

In France, the dream jobs for boys are, in order of preference: aeroplane or helicopter pilot, engineer, scientist and in fourth place: "Doctor, nurse or emergency doctor.

The jobs that girls dream of are first: teacher and then doctor, nurse or emergency doctor. The tastes of young Belgians must certainly be similar to those of French children. The profession of doctor is still a dream for young girls and boys. In Belgium and France, the studies to become a doctor of medicine last from 9 to 12 years (for the specialisations).

Of course this doctor's case is only a toy for children, but this medical case is an opportunity to imagine oneself practising a beautiful profession and will perhaps give the desire to become a doctor. This first aid case is a birthday gift idea, a birthday gift for a child, girl or boy, an original gift for the holidays, in short an original gift idea for children.

Round metal box with...

Conservation solutions The discovery and development of ceramics was a major step forward in the preservation and storage of certain liquids, such as wine and various drinks obtained after distillation or fermentation and therefore containing alcohol. This made it possible to preserve liquids in hermetically sealed ceramic containers. These tightly sealed containers were indispensable for their preservation. Another preservation solution that humans used several thousand years before Christ was cold or freeze-drying. Freeze-drying means freezing the food and then dehydrating it to remove the liquid. Each era has brought advances in food and liquid preservation. The Romans introduced brine and vinegar as a preservative, resulting in marinade. Then came sodium chloride and acetic acid, which were mankind's first preservative food additives. After that, benzoic and sorbic acids, natural preservatives present in certain spices, cinnamon and cloves, helped Marco Polo's travels. In the Middle Ages, tobacco was added, also a preservative additive, but also the formaldehyde found in wood smoke, which allowed the smoking of many foods. Gifts-custopolis proposes metal tins with a lid that can be personalised with different decorations: Mother's Day, Secretaries' Day or professional birthdays, with an unforgettable holiday photo or with a photo of whoever you want. A metal box decorated with a gold coloured birthday label! Ideal birthday gift, it is a very nice gift for an original birthday, original birthday gift idea, perfect gift for someone you love.
