Isn't all of it wonderful? You found what I consider to be one of the best collections of automata (postings by 69mechanik) Their homepage is really interesting - what an art form and an honor for them to restore these amazing works of art. (And other pieces are hauntingly cool and wonderful when not fully restored!) Love me some automata! dHb
I think I adore it so much because it seems very creepy and beautiful at the same time, the thought of someone going through so much trouble to make each little bit work exactly the way they imagine it is fascinating. Very Victorian, slightly steampunk and very cool.
I just found this by mistake but it is so fascinating. It is so beautiful, I think I've found a new obsession.

Thank you once again for this wonderful footage.
It's a shame that the Industrial Revolution and factory production killed off toy-making as an art form.
These are so extraordinary,I'd happily watch them for hours.
