Mastering the nuances of this authentic practice chanter is the first step for novices who wish to learn to play the Great Highland Bagpipes, a centuries-old instrument once outlawed in Scotland as a way to suppress local traditions after the battle of Culloden in 1746. Crafted from rosewood with a conical central bore hole that produces a rich sound when air is blown through the mouthpiece over the reed, the chanter is tuned one step lower than an actual bagpipe chanter and is much quieter. It separates into two pieces for storage and transport. The kit includes a reed, instructional booklet, and CD that teaches basic fingering techniques developed by Captain John MacLellan, former Director of the Army School of Piping at Edinburgh Castle. Made in Scotland. 18 1/2 L. (1 lb.).

WAS 1500.00 NOW 799.95 With its roots in the astrolabes developed by the ancient Greek astronomers to determine the position of the sun and stars, this astrolabium clock does more than simply count off hours, minutes, months, and dates. Crowning this extraordinary precision instrument is a miniature globe of the earth that rotates and revolves around a solid brass sun. Attached to the earth's gear assembly is the moon, which maintains its synchronous rotation around the earth (always presenting the same face to land-based observers, depicted by the grey hemisphere). All orbiting bodies move in real time, perfectly synchronized with clock's skeleton quartz movement, 24 solid-brass gears, and differential, all which provide precise timekeeping. Designed by Richard Hermle of the famous German clock-making family, it is an exacting reproduction of the beautiful 18th-century heaven machine built by the famous clockmaker Philipp Matthaus Hahn (1739-1790). Known to antiquity as a telurium, the astrolabium is mounted on a lacquered solid cherry base with a mouth-blown crystal dome. The miniature earth is made of a combination of four semi-precious stones, including abalone, green agate, jade, and mother of pearl, cut in detail to depict continents and oceans. Minor assembly. Includes one C battery that provides up to one year of operation. 11 1/4 H x 8 1/4 Diam. (8 lbs.).

Winner of the Popular Science Best of What's New award, this is the device that stores up to 160 electronic books and displays them on a patented screen that replicates the contrast of black ink on light-gray paper, resulting in high-contrast and a reading experience that is similar to a page in an actual book. The 6 screen uses E-Ink® technology, an award-winning electronic paper that reflects light like ordinary loose-leaf and is capable of maintaining displayed text without drawing electricity. Unlike typical backlit LCDs, the screen will not cause eye fatigue and it is visible in direct sunlight, allowing for convenient use outdoors. About the size of a paperback, but less than 1/2 thick, the unit only draws power when you press the page turn buttons, ensuring up to 7,500 page turns on a single charge, enough to read The Da Vinci Code 16 times before recharging is required. The device connects to a PC for purchasing and downloading electronic books from an online store with 20,000 titles, or digital texts can be uploaded using a memory card. The unit has an integrated music player that is compatible with unencrypted MP3 and AAC formats, and it supports Word documents, Adobe® PDFs, and JPEGs.

WAS 349.95 NOW 174.95 This reversible 100% cashmere hooded sweater originates amidst the barrens of the Gobi Desert of Mongolia, where indigenous goats grow a coat of fine cashmere hairs, allowing them to thrive in the high-altitude winters. After the fleece is hand-combed from the goats, the raw fibers are spun into two-ply yarn with 54 stitches per four inches for superior softness, then dyed and meticulously knitted into the finished sweater, resulting in a lightweight yet high-loft garment without bulk. Each sweater averages over one pound of pure cashmere, requiring the raw material of five cashmere goats to make a single sweater. With reversible zipper and two pockets. Specify Black/Gray or Blue/Khaki reversible. Dry clean only. Men's sizes M (40-42), L (44-46), or XL (46-48). (1 1/2 lbs.).
