    The last item is an alembic, it was used to distil rosewater or other herbal essences for houshold use in england in the tudor period (as far as i remember). You would cool the outside of the dome with wet cloth while cooking the herbs in water in the pot underneath. The essence would drip out of the spout in front.

    As a teen in the late '60s and early '70s I can confirm that the scale was probably used in a home based retail capacity, weighing out 7, 14, 21 and 28 gram baggies of dried plant materials.

      Nope, all the dealers had hanging "postage scales" back then with a clip and counterweight. Those all got replaced with electronic digital scales when tech advanced... That thing is way too old and big for a "baggie scale", it's a postage scale from long before that era.

    Wearing hats had nothing to do with religion or piety. It was fashion, that's all. In Christian tradition, men didn't keep their hats on in church, so the clips were probably for convenient storage. since placing a hat on the seat could result in someone sitting on it.

      Actually there are several religious taboos about hats and head wear, the yarmulke, the Muslim head gear, popes, cardinals.
      Regal crowns are placed on the anointed head by the hand of a religious person with the provenance and invocation from the Lord above.
      In one religion women have to cover their head so as not to overly excite the deities and men must show their head, in another the men are required to hide their head and the women must show theirs

      @@user-wm3bf7pi3u Actually, I didn't contradict myself. I may have phrased my thoughts imperfectly. The poster of the video surmised that the wearing of hats to church may have made people feel it 'made them more pious', which was not the case It was simply a matter of putting on your best clothes for a special occasion. I grew up in the 1950s, and my mother in the 1920s. In those periods, and long before, wearing of hats in daily life was fashion, pure and simple, for many people. My grandfather wore a hat regularly; my father did not. In church, men were expected to remove their hats. This led to the use of clips such as those pictured in the video, for the reasons I stated.

    Wearing your hat to church doesn’t make you “more pious” you said it yourself you dressed up in your Sunday best including a hat for men and while ladies can wear their hats inside it’s rude for men to do the same and hats can get destroyed if they’re just sitting around. No you wear you nicest clothes to church not to be pious but because church is also a social event, you don’t go to church in a vacuum you see all of your friends and fellow church members. There was a time when you spent most of Sunday at church and only a small part of that time was services.
