* Gambling ball. A rare 17th century ivory teetotum, English, multifaceted spherical ivory ball, one facet etched with a crown, the others incised with a number between 1 and 32, additionally inscribed 'six' beneath the numeral 6 (to differentiate from 9), dark patina from age and handling, and some superficial cracks, diameter approximately 45mm (1.75ins)Qty: (1)NOTESA rare early teetotum in very good condition, with the desirable crown motif (often absent or worn) clearly discernible. Teetotums are a many faceted gaming ball with each side numbered, akin to dice, but if made true, as denoted by the crown motif, there is an equal chance of any number turning up, which is not the case with dice. They were used for gambling and lotteries, the latter first becoming an acceptable means of raising money around 1568 during the reign of Elizabeth I when there was an urgent need of funds for repairs to the harbours and fortifications of the country, then under threat of invasion from the Spanish. Lotteries were later enshrined in law through various Acts of Parliament, becoming a popular and lucrative means of increasing government revenue and they were regularly conducted, both in London and the country, by appointed contractors. Lotteries were not confined to monetary prizes, stakes could also comprise jewellery, paintings, tapestries, silver, books, land and even animals, such as the live deer of Syon Park. English philosopher John Locke (1632-1704), refers to a 32-sided ivory ball in his 1693 publication Some Thoughts Concerning Education, suggesting a teetotum similar to that used for the Royal Oak Lottery, introduced by Charles I to fund the carrying of water to London, could be used to teach children to read.

Lot 276
* Sewing. A large expanding whalebone swift, early-mid 19th century, double-cage umbrella swift, turned ivory yarn cup supported on a whalebone shaft with turned barrel-form wooden clamp (later?), expanding whalebone slats held by pewter rivets and joined with silk ribbons of varying colours (1 or 2 lacking), 1 slat adrift, and another broken (with slight loss), overall length 44cm (17.25ins), diameter when fully open 61cm (24ins), together with a small collection of wooden sewing tools, including another yarn winder, some broken or incompleteQty: (9)NOTESSwifts were elaborate contraptions used to wind skeins of yarn into balls. The cage, made from wood or whalebone, was designed to open up and expand and spin on its central spindle. Examples made of whalebone were often fashioned by sailors as gifts for their sweethearts. References in whaler’s logbooks indicate that it would typically take two or three years to make a swift while at sea, so a sailor would often make only one in his lifetime, and its gifting was not done lightly. Sometimes more than one crew member might work on such a project, and it is not surprising that unfinished swifts lurking in old sea chests are not uncommon. Many swifts were carved with a clamp so that they could be affixed to the edge of a table. Others were incorporated into bases that featured drawers, pincushions, or spool holders.
