AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare and unusually decorative mechanical coach-/car jack from the early 20th century, originating from Belgium and marked:
“LEON DAUBRY – BREVETÉ – GILLY”
This fine pre-WWI piece is likely dated around 1911, which also matches the old original exhibition/inventory label still present on the footplate.
It is an early ratchet jack with:
- vertical toothed rack,
- long operating lever,
- original support,
- heavy, stable footplate.
Such jacks were used for:
- horse-drawn carriages,
- coaches,
- early automobiles,
- and garage or workshop use in the pioneering era of the automobile.
The object possesses a beautiful authentic industrial appearance with a completely original old patina. A special collectible for lovers of:
- automobilia,
- coach and carriage antiques,
- early car accessories,
- industrial décor,
- Belgian technical history.
The construction is entirely solid brass and still bears the original factory marking.
Condition
Good original condition with normal wear and aging appropriate to age and use.
Original patina present.
The mechanism works perfectly.
Dimensions
- Height: approx. 36 cm
- Width: approx. 18 cm
Notes
A hard-to-find early example with clear manufacturer marking and particularly decorative character. Very attractive piece for collectors of early automobilia and industrial objects.
Will be carefully and safely packed for shipment.
