Y A FINE SWISS GREEN BOULLE GRANDE SONNERIE STRIKING AND REPEATING ALARM CARRIAGE CLOCKUNSIGNED, PROBABLY GENEVA, CIRCA 1840The eight-day two train movement configured with ting-tang striking for the quarters on a graduated pair of bells mounted within the base of the case and the hour sounding at every quarter on the larger of the two, the going train with silvered platform lever escapement regulated by sprung split bimetallic balance, the backplate with alarm winding to top right over visible strike-work incorporating selection square stamped P/G/S towards the margin, the rectangular white enamel Roman numeral dial with blued steel moon hands and Arabic numeral subsidiary alarm setting dial to lower margin, the bevel-glazed case overall decorated with green-stained shell and engraved cut-brass premier-parti 'Boulle' marquetry veneers, with shaped hinged brass carrying handle over rectangular top glass within marquetry decorated surround incorporating repeat button to front edge and conforming veneered swept border, above repeating foliate cast brass top moulding and glazed apertures framed by green shell and cut brass veneered surrounds to both the front and sides, the rear with green tortoiseshell veneered door, on leaf-cast ogee moulded skirt base faced with further conforming marquetry veneers over bracket feet.21.5cm (8.5ins) high with handle down, 13.5cm (5.5ins) wide, 10cm (4ins) deep. The practice of planting the strike-work on the movement backplate is typical of Swiss work, (in particular clocks made in the Neuchatel region) from around 1775; with the Courvoisier family being perhaps the best-known makers of carriage clocks to incorporate this system. A simpler clock, signed for J. Picard of Geneva, which shares some notable similarities within the detailing and layout of the levers of the current lot, is illustrated in Roberts, Derek CARRIAGE and other Travelling CLOCKS on page 244 (Figure 15-6 a and b). A carriage clock (albeit hour striking only without repeat and alarm) housed in a contra-partie version of the case of the present clock was sold at Sheppard's Irish Auction House, Durrow, Co. Laois, 26th February 2019.Condition Report: Movement is in fine, clean fully working condition with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The dial has a very slight blemish adjacent to the mask at the upper edge toward the left hand corner (barely visible even on close examination) otherwise is in free form visible faults. The case is in fine condition with no lifting or losses to the marquetry veneers or visible chips to the glasses. Overall the clock is in very fine almost retail condition.Clock has a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

A FRENCH GORGE CASED GRANDE SONNERIE STRIKING CARRIAGE CLOCK WITH ALARMATTRIBUTED TO JOSEPH SOLDANO, LATE 19th CENTURYThe eight-day two train movement configured with ting-tang striking for the quarters on a graduated pair of coiled gongs and the hour sounding at every quarter hour on the larger of the two, the going train with silvered platform lever escapement regulated by sprung split bimetallic balance and stamped with oblong J.S. cartouche for Joseph Soldano alongside No. 1207 to the leading edge of the platform, the top left of the movement with alarm mechanism sounding on the smaller gong, the inside of the frontplate stamped 3945 and the backplate further stamped 1117 to lower left, the rectangular white enamel Roman numeral dial with blued steel moon hands and subsidiary alarm setting dial to lower margin, the satin-gilt brass gorge case with hinged carrying handle over rectangular top glass, trip-repeat button to front rail and channel-moulded uprights, the rear with pin-hinged glazed door over ogee-outline base with three-position selection lever annotated Hours Quarters/Silent/Quarters to underside.15cm (6ins) high with handle down, 10cm (4ins) wide, 9cm (3.5ins) deep. The current lot is fitted with an escapement stamped with the 'J S' cartouche trademark for Joseph Soldano who is recorded in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS, Their history and development as a maker of fine carriage clocks. Soldano was awarded medals at the Paris Exhibitions of 1855 & 1878 where it was noted that 'The escapements appeared to us to have been treated with particular care.' Allix notes that their escapements probably made in Geneva, Switzerland and were often stamped 'Soldano' or 'J S'. Although Joseph Soldano made carriage clocks outright (including highly decorated models) he apparently supplied other makers with his high-quality escapements.Condition Report: The movement appears complete and all-original. The going train is running however the action of the escapement is a little laboured suggesting that a gentle clean/service is required. The grande-sonnerie striking is fully operational including the selection lever to the underside. The alarm is also working and is in-sync with the setting hand. The dial is free from visible blemishes. The case is in fine condition with no visible chips/faults to the glasses and only very slight spotting and grime build-up to the frosted gilt finish.Clock has a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

Condition Report: Movement will run and strike however the mechanism is a little dirty/tarnished and prone to stopping due to lubrication drying-out/becoming sticky hence a gentle clean and service is advised. The dial panel has a very well executed restored crack across the centre (passing throght the IX and III numerals as well as the centre hole) otherwise is in fine condition with other visible faults limited to minimal wear to the winding holes and couple of very light surface scratches. The case is generally in fine condition with noticeable faults limited to minor chips to lower corners of the front door glass. The side panels appear free from damage but exhibit light crazing to the glaze.

Garnier was awarded 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. In 1916 Paul Garnier's watch and clock collection was bequeathed to the Louvre. 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.Condition Report: The movement is in relatively clean working condition ad appears all-original with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements.

A MATCHED PAIR OF GILT GORGE CASED MID-SIZED PETIT-SONNERIE STRIKING AND REPEATING CARRIAGE CLOCKSDROCOURT, PARIS FOR RETIAL BY J.W. BENSON, LONDON, CIRCA 1880Each with two train eight-day movement ting-tang sounding the quarters on a graduated pair of gongs and sounding the hour on the larger of the two, the going trains with silvered platform lever escapements regulated by sprung bimetallic balances, both backplates stamped with oval D C trademark for Drocourt next to the gong block, the first stamped with serial number 16949 to the bottom left corner and to the inside lower margin of the frontplate and the second numbered 18672 in conforming locations, each with rectangular white enamel Roman numeral dial with blued steel moon hands and Arabic five minutes beyond the minute track over conforming retail signatures J.W. BENSON, 25 Old Bond Street, LONDON to lower margins, the gilt brass gorge cases with hinged carrying handles over rectangular top glasses, trip-repeat buttons to front rails and channel-moulded uprights, on ogee-moulded skirt bases each incorporating STRIKING/SILENT selection switch to underside, (2).Each 12.5cm (5ins) high with handle down, 8cm (3.125ins) wide, 7cm (2.75ins) deep. Pierre Drocourt is recorded in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS, Their history and development with further additions and corrections from research undertaken by Leigh Extence (available online) as born in 1819 and setting up in business as a clockmaker in Paris in 1853. He initially worked from Rue Limoges (later called 28 Rue Debelleyme after the rationalisation and merger of Streets in 1865), Paris and was succeeded by his son, Alfred (born 1847), in 1872. The blancs roulants, rough movements, were made in Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont, a town outside Dieppe, where Drocourt had workshops until their sale in 1904, being premises purchased from Holingue frères in 1875 who had previously supplied Drocourt. The firm was awarded numerous international exhibition medals and mentions including Silver in Paris 1878 and Gold in 1889. The firm of J.W. Benson has its roots in the partnership between brothers James William and Samuel Suckley Benson which traded as watchmakers, goldsmiths and silversmiths in Cornhill, London from 1847 until 1855. James William Benson continued the business alone and opened a premises at 33 Ludgate Hill which quickly expanded to absorb number 34 as well. By the 1860's Benson was advertising his large and richly stocked shop with adjoining workshop specialising in the manufacture of clocks and watches as well as their repair. J.W. Benson exhibited at numerous international exhibitions including London 1862, Paris 1867 and subsequently at the 1885 'Invention Exhibition' where the firm unveiled its 'Patent Dust and Damp Excluding Band for Watches'. In 1872 J.W. Benson opened a shop on Bond Street; he died in 1878 however the business continued to expand under the management of his sons, Alfred and Arthur, with another shop on Ludgate Hill and steam powered factory in La Belle Sauvage yard opening in 1890.In 1879 the firm of J.W. Benson was awarded a Royal Warrant by Queen Victoria and in 1889 they acquired the business of the celebrated silversmiths and goldsmiths Hunt and Roskell. The business continued well into the 20th century however their factory was lost in a bombing raid during WWII; the Bond Street store continued trading until it was taken over by Mappin and Webb during the 1980's. The present lot is interesting in that the two carriage clocks are nearly identical but have a few detail differences which provide an interesting insight into the variations in production that occurred in the finishing of carriage clocks in the Drocourt Workshops at this time.Condition Report: Clock No. 16949 - movement is intact and appears free from alterations or noticeable replacements. The going train will run but is prone to stopping; strike train is also operational but the sequencing of the gong blows is 'muddled' suggesting adjustment/attention to the under dial work is required. Movement otherwise appears reasonably clean however a gentle clean/service and adjustment is required. The dial has a light hairline crack just visible in the extreme top right corner otherwise appears free from visible faults; the canted bezel surround has some discolouration to the gilding at the angles. The case has overall wear to the gilding and tarnishing to the brass where the gilding has worn through otherwise is in fine original condition with no visible chips to the glasses.Clock No. 18672 - movement is in very similar condition to that of the other example, hence requires a gentle clean/service and attention/adjustment to the strike mechanism. The dial enamel is free from visible damage/defects however the minute hand is probably a replacement; the canted bezel insert has similar (albeit lesser) discolouration at the angles. The case has noticeably less wear to the gilding otherwise is in the same condition as the other clock with no visible damage to the glasses.There is no winding key present with either example. Condition Report Disclaimer

A FINE FRENCH GILT BAMBOO REPEATING ALARM CARRIAGE CLOCK WITH RELIEF CLOISSONNE ENAMEL PANELSDROCOURT, PARIS, LATE 19th CENTURYThe eight-day two train gong striking movement with silvered platform lever escapement regulated by sprung split bimetallic balance and alarm mechanism positioned to the top left sounding on the hour gong, the backplate stamped with oval DC trademark to centre left over serial number 21095, the rectangular cream ground cloisonne enamel dial with golden yellow ground Arabic numeral chapter ring set within asymmetric polychrome flowering foliage inhabited by nesting birds and incorporating a subsidiary alarm setting dial to lower margin, the gilt brass bevel glazed bamboo case with frame modelled to resemble sections of grained bamboo overlapping at the corners, the top with conforming hinged carrying handle and panel-glazed escapement aperture and the sides inset with impressive relief modelled cream ground polychrome cloisonné enamel panels depicting a peacock perched amongst chrysanthemums to the right hand side opposing a rooster standing beneath flowering shrubbery to the left, the rear with bevel-glazed door and standing on integral bamboo stump feet.16.5cm (6.5ins) high with handle down, 11cm (4.375ins) wide, 9cm (3.5ins) deep.  Pierre Drocourt is recorded in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS, Their history and development with further additions and corrections from research undertaken by Leigh Extence (available online) as born in 1819 and setting up in business as a clockmaker in Paris in 1853. He initially worked from Rue Limoges (later called 28 Rue Debelleyme after the rationalisation and merger of Streets in 1865), Paris and was succeeded by his son, Alfred (born 1847), in 1872. The blancs roulants, rough movements, were made in Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont, a town outside Dieppe, where Drocourt had workshops until their sale in 1904, being premises purchased from Holingue frères in 1875 who had previously supplied Drocourt. The firm was awarded numerous international exhibition medals and mentions including Silver in Paris 1878 and Gold in 1889. The highly unusual enamel panels fitted to the current clock carefully and cleverly employ a mixture of opaque and translucent enamels to create depth, texture and lustre which varies under different lighting conditions. Some areas in particular, such as those representing the tail plumage of the peacock, utilise engraved and chiselled detail within metal ground plate to great effect by allowing reflected to pass through vibrant pigmented transparent enamel surface layers. In addition to this the dial panel utilises the cloisonne technique for the chapter ring numerals and the dot minute markers, the alarm setting dial is also finished in the same manner which has required particularly fine work in the execution of the numerals. Clocks with this particular type of relief cloisonne enamel decoration appear to be extremely rare, however an example almost certainly from the same workshop is illustrated in Roberts, Derek CARRIAGE CLOCKS and Other Travelling CLOCKS on page 203 (Fig. 12-12).Condition Report: Movement appears complete, all-original and is fully working including the strike, repeat and alarm. Although the mechanism is in relatively clean condition a precautionary gentle service is advised if intending to put the clock into service. The dial has an extremely faint hairline to the cream ground across the upper right-hand corner (only visible on very close examination) otherwise is in fine condition. The enamel side panels present as in fine condition however in close examination some restoration to the cream ground to the upper right-hand corner of the 'peacock' panel (right-hand side) and to cream at the upper left-hand margin of the cockerel panel (left hand side) is evident. There is also some extremely slight hairline crazing to the cream near the feet of the cockerel. The gilding to the case is in fine condition; the top panel has a very small depression near the front edge (pin-head size). The glasses appear free from visible damage.Clock has a non-original winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

Y A WILLIAM IV BOULLE LYRE-SHAPED CARRIAGE OR MANTEL TIMEPIECEDWERRIHOUSE, OGSTEN AND BELL, LONDON, CIRCA 1830The circular three pillar eight-day going barrel movement with underslung English lever platform escapement regulated by sprung monometallic balance, the backplate signed DWERRIHOUSE, OGSTON & BELL towards the upper margin, the 3.375 inch circular gilt Roman numeral dial with radial engine-turned centre and further signed DWERRIHOUSE, OGSTON & BELL to lower margin, with blued steel moon hands set behind hinged convex glazed gilt brass bezel with engine-milled insert, the lyre-shaped case with foliate cast and chased hinged gilt brass carrying handle applied to the leafy scroll engraved brass and tortoiseshell marquetry top panel positioned between out-swept side projections, over rosewood band to frieze, half-round mouldings bordering the dial aperture and concave sided cradle decorated with further brass marquetry scrollwork to front, the red-stained shell veneered sides following the curved outline of the front, the rear veneered in rosewood and incorporating a shaped downward-hinged door inset with a scroll-pierced and engraved brass sound fret, on skirt base applied with acanthus cast gilt brass upper mouldings over brass marquetry decoration to front and engine turned bun feet.22cm (8.5ins) high with handle down, 16.5cm (6.5ins) wide, 10cm (4ins) deep. The partnership of Dwerrihouse, Ogston and Bell are recorded in Loomes, Brian Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World, Volume 2 as working at Davies Street, Berkeley Square, London in 1832-35.Condition Report: The movement is complete and in clean condition with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The movement is fully wound and the escapement is intact and will beat a couple of times when encouraged however the clock is currently not running most probably due to being 'gummed-up' with dry/sticky lubrication. Therefore a gentle clean/service is almost certainly all that is required to bring it back to reliable working condition. The dial is in fine original condition exhibiting only light mellowing/oxidation to the surface and slight rubbing to the signature area.The case generally has survived in very good original condition with no losses or noticeable lifting to the brass marquetry. The tortoiseshell veneers to the curved elements are in very good condition with a small patch pf lifting/delamination to the inside face of the left hand side projection and another to the right hand side around the 2 o'clock position. There is a small veneer loss/chip to the upper edge of the lower side scroll moulding to the right-hand side; the left-hand side has a larger chip to the leading edge of the same lip and two small corner chips and slight movement to the same section below. The lower vertical faces edges of both these mouldings are lacking thin finishing strips of veneer. The skirting is in good condition with only two very small edge chips to the right-hand side. The rear has some overall light but noticeable shrinkage cracking to the rosewood veneers otherwise is in good condition.Timepiece has a case key and a winder.  Condition Report Disclaimer

AN UNUSUAL FRENCH PORCELAIN PANEL MOUNTED GILT BRASS ALARM CARRIAGE CLOCK IN A ONE-PIECE CASEMOSER, PARIS, CIRCA 1840The two train countwheel bell striking movement with platform lever escapement regulated by sprung monometallic balance, the backplate signed Moser a Paris and numbered 8058 to lower margin, the inside lower edge of the frontplate further stamped 2453, the circular white enamel Roman numeral dial with pierced blued steel trefoil hands set within fine foliate scroll gilt brass rectangular mask incorporating a conforming enamel Arabic numeral subsidiary alarm setting dial to lower margin, the bevel-glazed one-piece case with rococo scroll cast hinged carrying handle over top glass applied with a raised oval porcelain plaque polychrome painted with an 18th century style female portrait within gilt cartouche and blue ground border set within canted gilt brass surround flanked by foliate scroll-pierced fretwork, the caddy moulded frame cast and chased in relief with fine fruiting foliage incorporating crossed ribbon decoration to uprights, the side glasses applied with conforming raised oval porcelain panels decorated with putti, each set between a pierced and engraved foliate strapwork crest and apron, the rear door with further large panel painted with an 18th century musician playing a lute within pierced upper and lower border infill, on repeating leaf chased cavetto skirt base with inset rounded angles.15cm (6ins) high with handle down, 10.5cm (4.125ins) wide, 9.5cm (3.75ins) deep. Recent research by Leigh Extence has established that Georges Moser was born in Switzerland in 1798. By 1823 he had moved to Paris and was located at 18 Grenier St. Lazarre (which became number 15 in 1825). In 1836 Moser had moved to Boulevard du Temple 9 and subsequently entered into partnership with Samuel Marti in 1840. The partnership was registered at the address Orleans-Marais 13 until 1843 when Moser left and returned to Boulevard du Temple 9 before moving to number 24 in 1846 and then finally to number 15 in 1850. In 1860 the business was registered with 'et Cie' and records ceased after 1863.Extence also notes that Georges Moser utilised movements supplied by Holingue freres who also supplied Paul Garnier and were an important part of the history of Drocourt.Condition Report: Movement is clean condition with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The strike and alarm mechanisms are fully operational; the going train will run but escapement sticks which is most likely due to lubrication drying-out. The dial enamel appear to be free from visible faults and the mask is in good condition with no visible wear or faults. The case is in very good original condition with minimal edge wear and discolouration to the gilding.
