Provenance: The property of a private collector. Benjamin Vulliamy was born in 1747 and was presumably trained by his father, Justin. He was granted the Royal Appointment as the King's Clockmaker in 1773 before joined his father in around 1780 and was admitted as an Honoury Freeman to the Clockmakers Company in 1781. It was at this time he built a regulator for the King's Observatory at Kew which served as the Prime Meridian until Greenwich Royal Observatory took over in 1884. Benjamin Vulliamy is perhaps best known for his highly decorative sculptural timepieces in the executed in the Neo-Classical taste created from white marble and Derby biscuit porcelain with the finest cast and chased ormolu mounts. As Royal clockmaker Vulliamy supplied several timepieces of this type to the Royal family many of which still reside reside in the Royal collection (see Jagger, Cedric ROYAL CLOCKS page 117, figure 161). Benjamin Vulliamy was succeeded by his son, Benjamin Lewis, who worked from 52 Pall Mall, served as Warden 1821-5 and was appointed Master five times. The Vulliamys started numbering most of their clocks from 1788 until 1854. Two of the original Vulliamy work books still survive in the library of the British Horological Institute at Upton Hall, these often can provide valuable information regarding the manufacture and provenance of many clocks made by the workshop. Unfortunately the records are incomplete hence only note clocks with serial numbers 296-469 and 746-1067, which means that the current lot, number 272, remains unidentified. The confident and distinctive design of the current lot with dial incorporating twin subsidiaries to the shallow arch and case with squat proportions to the caddy surmount, crisp mouldings and design of side frets is highly typical of those produced by Vulliamy family. The movement is finely executed with crisp wheelwork, superbly finished fittings such as the two-part backcock and plates measuring around 4mm thick. The overall general appearance/proportions of the present clock remains essentially unchanged from those first made by Justin Vulliamy during the third quarter of the 18th century and similar examples continued to be made by the Vulliamy family into the second quarter of the 19th century. Indeed a related clock dating to around 1835 (number 1260) was sold in these rooms on 15th September 2015 (lot 192) for £22,000 hammer.

D. B. incorporating date 1788, the 14 inch white painted Roman numeral break-arch dial inscribed ROBOTHAM and with day-of-the week tune indication dial to centre, fine engraved and pierced gilt brass hands, Arabic five minutes to outer track and floral spray polychrome decorated spandrels beneath arch finely painted with figural automaton scene of a quintet with six separate movements operated via linkages connected to the musical work behind, in a swan neck pedimented case with fretwork leafy tendril infill over hinged break-arch glazed and crossbanded hood door flanked by Corinthian columns, the sides with rosette-pierced sound frets and shaped bargeboards to the rear, the trunk with concave throat moulding and swollen frieze over shaped-top caddy moulded door flanked by fluted quarter columns, on shaped raised panel fronted plinth base with moulded skirt incorporating shaped apron, 249cm (98ins) high. Samuel Deacon is recorded in Hewitt, P.A. THE DEACON FAMILY OF LEICESTERSHIRE CLOCKMAKERS as born in Ratby, Leicestershire on 6th February 1746 and, after initially going in to farm service, he was offered an apprenticeship with the clockmaker Joseph Donisthorpe (as a result of a chance recognition of his practical abilities). In 1769 Deacon was employed as a journeyman to the Leicester clockmaker Thomas Lindley before setting up on his own as a clockmaker in the small hamlet Barton-in-the-Beans in 1771. Whilst in Leicester Deacon became acquainted with the Rev. William Ludlam who went on to tutor Deacon on the theoretical aspects of clockmaking as well as hone his skills on the practical side with particular attention to musical clocks. These skills enabled him to set-up business on his own in a highly cost-effective manner as he was able to make most of his workshop tools rather than buy them. In 1803 his wife, Elizabeth, died after a short illness; Samuel died after a stroke in 1816 leaving the business in the hands of his cousin, also named Samuel. The workshop passed down through successive generations until 1951 when the last of the Deacon clockmakers, Thomas William retired. Leicester Museums acquired the contents of the workshop and archive preserving it as one of the only 18th century clockmaking workshops to remain intact. Samuel Deacon s work is highly distinctive with many features such as baluster pillars, use pin countwheel, distinctive design of pendulum and hammer shapes making his work unmistakeable. In addition to making work for clients Deacon also supplied parts, movements or complete clocks to other local makers. Indeed his records indicate that he first started supplying the maker Robotham of Leicester in 1778. In 1774 Samuel Deacon advertised the fact that he was able to make musical clocks with the first being a four train quarter-chiming musical clock built under the direction of Ludlam for Lindley to supply to Samuel Darker of Tugby. This clock is described and extensively illustrated in Darken, Jeff (editor) TIME & PLACE, English Country Clocks 1600-1840 on pages 186-191. In 1790 Samuel Deacon made his masterpiece - a four train quarter chiming musical clock with interchangeable cylinders and automaton for the Rev. Severn of Hinckley. Both of these complex musical clocks share strong similarities with the current lot, the first most noticeably in its basic layout incorporating transverse music barrel, the second with the inclusion of an automaton depicting musicians, whilst all three share a wealth of details typical of Deacon s finest work. The current lot presents as a fine example of this highly regarded regional maker s work and is in fine original condition.

A rare French gilt brass carriage clock with two-plane 'chaffcutter' escapement Paul Garnier, Paris, circa 1840 The eight-day two train movement with two-plane 'chaffcutter' escapement and three-arm monometallic balance set between the plates and striking the hours on a bell mounted to the backplate signed on an applied plaque PAUL GARNIER, A PARIS towards upper left hand corner and stamped P.G., Brevete over serial number 514 to centre, the rectangular engine-turned silvered brass Roman numeral dial with radial design to centre within chapter ring and 'watered-silk' infill incorporating vacant signature plaque to lower margin and with Breguet style blued steel moon hands, the gilt brass one-piece caddy moulded case with hinged slender baton handle above upward sliding front glass for winding, on cavetto moulded skirt base with inset rounded angles, (in neglected, unrestored condition), 14.5cm (5.75ins) high excluding handle. Paul Garnier is recorded in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS as born 1801 and receiving Silver Medals in the Paris Exhibitions of 1827, 34, and 39; and gold medals in 1844 and 49. He worked from various addresses at Rue Taitbout, Paris and died in 1869 leaving the business to his son of the same name who was still exhibiting carriage clocks in the Paris Exhibition of 1889. Paul Garnier is generally credited for being the first maker to essentially standardise the 'petit pendule portative' which was in effect to become the prototype for the archetypal French carriage clock. The current lot with its 'chaffcutter' escapement, engine turned 'watered-silk' dial and squat one-piece case with wooden block insert to underside can be firmly identified as a 'Series I' carriage clock by Garnier as identified by Allix (see Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS pages 56-7).
