1895 McDowell Co Garment Drafting Machine dressmaking pattern
CollectionHero
eBay A McDowell Garment Drafting Machine for dressmaking and tailoring, patented 1879, 1885, and 1886. All the pieces are intact, move and adjust easily and there do not appear to be any missing parts, although I am certainly not expert in this, so please consult the pictures and ask any questions you might have. Comes with everything pictured, including the sad remains of the original box.The McDowell Garment Drafting Machine and Sleeve Machine were an attempt to mechanize the drafting process for women's garments and reduce the number of fittings for ongoing clients. They were designed to replace various pattern making processes that were used by seamstresses in the late nineteenth century, that were thought to be time consuming, difficult to use and imprecise.The idea behind these machines was that you could take someone's measurements key them into these machines and you would have an instant pattern that was a bespoke fit. (Condition: Pre-Owned)

Antique Sewing Sampson Mordan & Co Sterling Silver Chick Bird Pin Cushion 1905
CollectionHero
eBay Sampson Mordan's "chick emerging from an egg" silver pin cushion was made in several sizes and this is the larger version.Made during the Edwardian period and hallmarked in Chester, this good quality pin cushion is nicely modelled and adjacent to the hallmarks is the registration design number Rd475678. This antique pin cushion remains in fine crisp condition and retains it original fabric pad (albeit a touch worn).The etchings of the chick are crisp and intact. Very little tarnish on the silver. Would shine if professionally cleaned. Item has very minimal wear. Please see photos.Sampson Mordan & CoSampson Mordan was born in 1790. After some years of apprenticeship, he established his own business in 1815, and joined forces with John Isaac Hawkins by 1822; together they filed a patent for a metal pencil with an internal lead propelling mechanism. Unlike the pencil’s popularity and longevity, their business relationship did not last much longer, with Mordan buying out Hawkins soon after Mordan registered his own silver mark in 1823 and then entered into partnership with stationer Gabriel Riddle. Under the name of S. Mordan & Co, and based at 22 Castle Street, City Road, London, they manufactured and retailed many writing and stationery related goods, particularly their silver mechanical pencils.The name S. Mordan & Co is also associated with lock making. Mordan had apprenticed with the great locksmith Joseph Bramah at the start of the 19th century, and thus he became an expert lock maker in his own right. With Bramah’s lock design patents having long expired, Mordan manufactured almost exact replicas of these locks, known as Bramahrian Patent locks, applying his own design variations and patented improvements. These proved highly popular: they were durable, secure and un-pickable; the keys were complicated to replicate and imperviousness to duplication from wax seal impressions.The partnership between Mordan and Riddle dissolved at the end of 1836. However, Mordan continued the business under the same name. He became very successful, building up a large repertoire of fancy, as well as functional, manufactured goods. Around 1842, he opened a dedicated retail premises at 50 Cheapside, London (which in 1854 was renumbered to 72 Cheapside) Mordan died in 1843. He left his business in the hands of his two sons, Sampson Mordan Jr and Augustus Mordan.By 1865, the Mordan’s manufactory was based at 41 City Road, London, and later expanded to include No. 43. At some point the two brothers were joined in partnership by Edmund George Johnson and Zachariah Watkins, but this partnership is documented to have been dissolved in 1879.Sampson Mordan Jr retired shortly afterwards, and died in 1881, leaving full control of the company to Augustus. Around this time, the partnership of S. Mordan & Co consisted of Augustus Mordan, Edmund George Johnson, Horace Stewart, Henry Lambert Symonds and James Pulley. In 1884, Augustus Mordan retired, leaving the partners to continue the business, still retaining its original name.In 1898, S. Mordan & Co became a limited company under the control of Symonds and Pulley, absorbing the gold and silversmith firm of Johnson, Sons & Edmonds. A year later, this partnership dissolved leaving Symonds as the director. The manufactory based at 41 & 43 City Road, London, was rebuilt in 1900, accompanying the opening of their showrooms at 9 & 11 Warwick Street, London.S. Mordan & Co Ltd finally stopped trading in 1941 when their manufactory was bombed during the Second World War.
