AN ENGLISH BRASS LANTERN CLOCK, LONDON, FIRST PERIOD unsigned, the dial finely engraved with a ring of flowers, the silvered chapter ring of roman numerals with quarter and star shaped half divisions, having iron hand, strapwork frets, banded ovoid finials, bell straps divided by leaves and iron bell, the movement with cruciform bars and now with anchor escapement, on bulbous feet, 41cm h, c1625-30 In 1987 this clock was the subject of correspondence (with which it is sold) between the late owner and George White, the author of English Lantern Clocks, published in 1989. Sir George, to whom the enquiry had been referred by the British Museum, observed that the rough castings of the frame can be found on a number of clocks by William Bowyer of Leadenhall Street. He also commented on the engraving which he describes as "particularly beautiful" and "full of [symbolism]" although suspecting that the engraver had executed it the wrong way up! ++Alarm work, doors, back, hoop, spurs and some other parts missing; long in the late owner`s possession and not subject to any recent or `professional restoration`, requires a light clean, but essentially complete and a good example from this early period. Consigned by executors

DESCRIPTION TO BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH ‘IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS’ printed in the sale catalogue or available from the auctioneers on request. The specification of the current lot with its `silent pull` repeat mechanism (which strikes the hours and quarters on demand only) and alarm suggests that this timepiece was designed predominantly for use in the bedroom chamber. Furthermore the small compact size indicates a degree of portability which suggests that this timepiece may well have been made with travelling in mind, perhaps serving the same basic purpose as a `Pendule d`Officier` of a century later. The form of the current lot, through its resemblance to a 16th century `masterpiece` table clock (of the type predominantly made in Southern Germany during the 16th and 17th centuries) suggests a Germanic influence. However the dial, with central alarm disc, applied chapter ring with Arabic five minutes and `winged mask` spandrels is almost reminiscent of English work of the late 17th century. The engraved decoration to the sides and back panel are wonderfully naive, with the rear depicting the scene of Judith carrying the head of Holo.
A rare George III ebonised bracket timepiece with pull quarter repeat William Keys, Taunton, late 18th century The four pillar single fusee movement with rise/fall regulation for the verge escapement and silent pull-quarter repeat sounding the quarters on a small bell and the hour on a large bell, the 8.5 inch brass break-arch dial with plain centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes and signed Will. Keys, TAUNTON to lower edge, the angles applied with scroll cast spandrels beneath arch with Faster/Slower regulation dial flanked by conforming mounts, the bell top case with hinged brass handle above foliate pierced frets to upper quadrants of the front door and circular over concave-topped sound frets to sides, on shallow moulded base (some losses/repairs to both movement and case), 48cm (19 ins) high excluding handle. DESCRIPTION TO BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH ‘IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS’ printed in the sale catalogue or available from the auctioneers on request. William Keys appears to be unrecorded, however two makers with the same surname are recorded working in Exeter during the early years of the 19th century. The movement of the current lot incorporates a repeat mechanism which is based upon a design originally devised by Joseph Knibb to enable the clock to sound both the hours and the quarters only on demand by pulling the line exiting the case. In this form, the repeat mechanism has to power both the hour and quarter striking mechanisms rather than just the quarters before tripping the hour strike train (for striking table clocks). This type of repeating mechanism is often termed `silent pull` and is thought to have been intended for clocks destined for use in the bedchamber. Evidence in both the backplate and the dial centre suggests that the current lot was also originally fitted with an alarm mechanism further indicating bedroom use. The original owner of the current lot would have had to have been a very wealthy individual in order to be able to afford the luxury of a spring clock exclusively for use in the bedchamber.
