Clock-making treatise with 50 impressive engravings!

 

Antoine Thiout was an 18th-century French horologist whose treatise on clock-making was one of the best and most referenced book throughout the late 1700s. First published in 1741, “Traité de l’horlogerie mechanique et Pratique” describes the parts of a watch or clock, the reliance of compasses, mechanics, pendulum construction, and more. However, the draw of this work is the exquisite, folding plates – views of watch and clock parts and illustrated direction on making time-pieces!
