Couaillet Freres are discussed by Leigh Extence in his article The Carriage Clock Makers of Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont published in National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors Bulletin, 2020; where they are described as being one of the most prolific of the carriage clock makers of carriage clocks operating from the horological town of Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont (near Dieppe) during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In 1885 Armand Couaillet was employed by the prominent maker Albert Villon, but in 1892 he and his brothers Denis and Ernest set up their own workshops in the centre of the town as Couaillet freres. They increased the size of the concern when buying the house and workshops of Delépine-Barrois across the road in 1912. Condition Report: The first (larger of the two) is in working condition and appears all-original with no noticeable replacements. The movement however would benefit from a clean and overhaul. The dial has a light hairline crack across the lower left corner and another across the right which is not visible due to being behind the frame, otherwise appears to be in good original condition. The case is a little dull/tarnished but is free from visible faults including the glasses. The second is also in good original working condition. The dial is undamaged - there are traces of a retailer's signature on the chapter ring. The case is in very good condition with no visible damage; the gilding has overall patchy oxidation.There is one key with the lot (fits both) but no travelling cases. Condition Report Disclaimer

He submitted many chronometers for the trials at Greenwich coming first in 1834 with chronometer number 144, and again the following year with watch number 160.

A FINE VICTORIAN GILT BRASS GIANT CARRIAGE CLOCK WITH PUSH-BUTTON REPEATPAYNE AND COMPANY, LONDON, LATE 19th CENTURYThe eight-day two train four pillar gong striking movement with substantial frosted gilt platform lever escapement regulated by sprung split bimetallic balance and with jewelled pivots, the platform table engraved No. 69683 and Fast/Slow regulation adjustment indication, the backplate signed Payne & Co.163 New Bond St., LONDON to centre and numbered 48, 62864 to lower edge, the 2.75 inch circular engine turned silvered Roman numeral dial with small concentric arched panel inscribed PAYNE & Co.163 New Bond St. LONDON to the upper margin of the fine diamond hatched centre, the outer track with dot minute markers interrupted by Arabic five minutes, with blued steel moon hands and set into a fine rococo foliate scroll engraved shallow arch mask, the heavy frosted gilt bevel-glazed case with hinged stylised reed tied carrying handle over large thick glass and bead bordered cavetto moulding to top the front with shallow arch glazed dial aperture incorporating angled brass fillet to interior flanked by canted angle uprights with applied reeded decoration to lower sections and outswept bases, the sides with fine scroll engraved rectangular panels set behind bevelled glasses, the rear with lift-out panel incorporating shuttered winding and hand adjustment square apertures, on stepped skirt base with reeded squab feet.21.5cm (8.5ins) high with handle down, 15.5cm (6.125ins) wide, 12.5cm (5ins) deep. Literature: The current lot is illustrated in Roberts, Derek CARRIAGE and Other Travelling CLOCKS on page 344 (Figs. 23-24). William Payne recorded in Roberts, Derek CARRIAGE and Other Travelling CLOCKS as first working from at 62 South Moulton Street London in 1816. By 1825 he had moved to 163 New Bond Street where the company remained until the 20th century. William Payne & Company, watch, clock and pedometer makers appear in trade directories from 1852 specialising in finely finished carriage and small mantel clocks as well as watches and pedometers, and were one of only five English makers to exhibit carriage clocks in the 1862 London Exhibition. Their clocks often feature rich engraving, and it thought that through their close associations with Thomas Cole that they may well have employed the same engravers for some of their work. The case of the current lot is of a pattern also used by Dent (see Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS Their History and development page 262; Plate IX/38 and Roberts page 318; Fig 21) and is particularly pleasing in the way that its bold, robust and confident design (almost appearing Art Deco in its form) provides the perfect enclosure for the fine jewel-like engraved panels set behind thick protective glasses. Condition Report: Movement is in relatively clean fully working condition. Movement may benefit from a gentle clean/service in the not to distant future. The silvering to the dial is a little oxidised, the signature is a little rubbed but still legible. The mask is in fine condition. The case is in fine condition with no visible damage to the glasses and only very minor edge wear to the gilding. The top surface (around the top glass) has very slight discolouration to the gilding and the handle has some slight grime/wear within the reeded section to the centre.Clock is complete with a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

A FINE AND RARE ENGRAVED GILT BRASS SHIELD-SHAPED REPEATING ALARM CARRIAGE CLOCK MARGAINE, PARIS, CIRCA 1875The mid-sized rectangular eight-day two train gong striking movement with silvered platform lever escapement regulated by sprung bimetallic balance, the lower margin of the frontplate with part-obscured stamped number 20..., the backplate with alarm winding to top left over stamped A.M. beehive trademark for Francois Arsène Margaine and serial number 11820 to lower left, the dial with circular white enamel Roman numeral hour disc with Arabic five minutes beyond the outer minute track and blued steel spade hands, set within fine foliate scroll engraved matted shield-shaped mask incorporating subsidiary alarm setting dial to margin and with canted surround, the engraved and chiselled cast gilt brass shield-shaped case with floral scroll-shaped hinged carrying handle to the acanthus cast shallow-ogee domed rectangular top panel incorporating repeat button, over egg-and-dart cast cavetto top moulding and repeating leaf bordered glazed front panel following the shape of the case, the sides applied with mounts cast as pairs of inverted entwined dolphins continuing downwards so that their heads, with mouths open and rosettes for eyes, form the four supports on which the clock stands, the rear matching the front but with the glazed panel hinged to allow access to the movement.14.5cm (5.75ins) high with handle down, 9.5cm (3.75ins) wide, 6.5cm (2.5ins) deep. The life and work of Francois Arsène Margaine is explored by Thomas Wortruba in his article The horological world of Francois Arsène Margaine published in ANTIQUARIAN HOROLOGY June 2014 (pages 807-818). Born 1835 Margaine was one of the leading carriage clock makers of his time, married in 1865 to the couturiere Armandine Fresnais his first recorded workshops were at 20 Rue du Pont-aux-Choux. He then moved numerous times until by 1880 he is known to be at 22 Rue Béranger although the family home was at the address given for his wife's business, 19 Boulevard Haussmann. Margaine was an innovator and obtained many brevets, patents, for his ideas as well as receiving various awards at expositions both in Paris and elsewhere. He was active in the horological world and alongside such as Alfred Drocourt, was involved in setting up the horological school in Paris, l'École d'horlogerie de Paris, in 1881 as well as being an active member of the Chambre Syndicale having obtained full membership in 1877. Arsène Margaine's last address in 1914 was 54 Rue de Bondy. The extremely rare and attractive design of the case of the present clock no doubt draws inspiration from Swiss Pendules D'officier and Viennese carriage clocks produced during the Biedermeier period. Austrian examples following a similar trend are illustrated in Roberts, Derek CARRIAGE and other Travelling CLOCKS on page 154.

Wotruba in his article The story behind 'PATENT SURETY ROLLER' stamped on carriage clocks published in ANTIQUARIAN HOROLOGY June 2019 (pages 239-47). Wotruba describes how the Patent Surety Roller (a mechanism which prevents the strike star wheel from accidentally jumping out-of-sync whilst the clock is being transported) was invented by Moritz Immisch for which he received a brevet in 1879. The patent was subsequently secured by Messrs Gay, Lamaille and Company of Paris and London. One of the firm's founders, Emile Gay(e), is recorded as working at 20 Red Lion Square, London in 1861 before going into partnership with a clockmaker named Vicarino and setting up operations at 5 rue Beranger, Paris. In around 1877-78 George Lamaille replaced Vicarino forming Gay, Lamaille and Company who through their strong connections with London supplied many of the leading English retailers such as Dent, Frodsham and Lund & Blockley during the latter years of the 19th century. Condition Report: Movement is in relatively clean fully working condition although the strike is currently an hour out-of-sync (sounds one hour behind). As catalogued the escapement platform is a replacement otherwise movement appears free from visible alteration or noticeable replacements. Dial has some light hairline cracks to the upper left-hand corner (only visible on close examination from oblique angle looking up into the corner behind the bevel of the glass) otherwise dial is in fine condition.

White, 20 Cockspur St., London, 691 to centre, the 3 inch circular white enamel Roman numeral dial with subsidiary running seconds hand at twelve o'clock and signed E. WHITE, 20 COCKSPUR S'T., LONDON to centre, with blued spade steel hands and set within a fine engine-turned gilt rectangular gilt mask framed by a canted bezel surround, the heavy thickly bevel-glazed frosted gilt brass case with hinged reeded baton-centred scroll-ended handle over rectangular top glass, inverted ogee cornice, and rounded uprights to angles, the rear with lift-out panel secured via a screw released via the winding key from beneath and with shuttered holes annotated with direction of wind arrow to the left and labelled SET HANDS to the right, on cavetto moulded skirt base with rounded angles, with original tooled black/green Morocco leather covered travelling case opening to reveal a deep green velvet lined interior incorporating dial aperture slide to the front. The timepiece 19.5cm (7.75ins) high with handle down, 13.3cm (5.25ins) wide, 10.8cm (4.25ins) deep; the travelling case 23.5cm (9.25ins) high, 17cm (6.75ins) wide, 15cm (6ins) deep.  Provenance:The present lot was sold at Christies King Street, London, sale of IMPORTANT CLOCKS AND MARINE CHRONOMETERS 6th December 2006 (lot 39) for £12,000 hammer where it was noted that the timepiece had been acquired from Garrards, London, in 1996. Subsequently purchased by the vendor from Anthony Woodburn.  Edward White was a chronometer and carriage clock maker who operated from premises at 20 Cockspur Street, Pall Mall London from 1861 to 1890. He was a former workman for Dent and exhibited at the 1862 Exhibition taking a four-page advertisement in the catalogue.  An essentially identical timepiece to the present lot (number 837) is illustrated in Roberts, Derek CARRIAGE and Other Travelling CLOCKS pages 320-21 (Figures 21-23 a., b., c.). A chronometer carriage clock by Dent, housed in a near-identical case, is also illustrated on page 319 (Figure 21-22 a). Roberts notes that the similarities between the examples signed by both E. White and Dent are such that 'it would seem more than a little likely that they were made by the same hand'. Condition Report: Movement is in fine clean working condition with no evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. Dial is free from visible damage or restoration; the mask is in fine condition with faults limited to a very small surface blemish towards the lower margin. The case is in fine original condition with no visible chips to any of the glasses and good strong original fire-gilt finish exhibiting only very slight edge rubbing, The rear has some very slight surface denting to the upper moulding at the centre otherwise faults are very much limited to a few tiny surface blemishes. The travelling case is in good sound original condition but with some losses to the covering mostly to the lower rear corners. The leather strap is no longer present. The interior has some tears to the silk velvet lining and the lock now works with a standard type key (not a Bramah key).Timepiece is generally in near 'retail condition' and is complete with a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

A FRENCH GILT ANGLAISE RICHE CASED GRANDE-SONNERIE ALARM CARRIAGE CLOCK WITH FINE FRETWORK PANELSUNSIGNED BUT WITH SIMILARITIES TO THE WORK OF HENRI JACOT, PARIS, CIRCA 1890The eight-day two train movement ting-tang striking the quarters on a graduated pair of gongs and sounding the hour every quarter hour on the larger of the two, with silvered platform lever escapement and alarm mechanism positioned to the top left sounding on the smaller gong, the dial with circular white enamel Roman numeral disc incorporating Arabic five minutes to outer track and with blued steel moon hands, set within a fine bright-cut engraved and pierced foliate scrollwork rectangular mask incorporating conforming subsidiary alarm setting dial to lower margin, the frosted gilt brass bevel-glazed variant of the Anglaise riche case with reeded baton to the hinged carrying handle over thick top glass, repeat button to front rail, complex moulded cornice and dentil frieze, the angles with fluted three-quarter columns with Corinthian capitals and the sides with fine foliate pierced and engraved frets each incorporating central urn issuing a floral spray set behind bevelled glasses, the rear with pin-hinged glazed door, on generous ogee moulded skirt base with conforming dentil frieze and stepped lower edge incorporating shallow block feet, the underside with Grande Sonnerie/Petit Sonnerie/Silence selection lever; with original tooled Morocco leather covered travelling case.The clock 17.5cm (7.5ins) high with handle down, 11.5cm (4.5ins) wide, 9.5cm (3.75ins) deep. Provenance: Previously sold at Bonhams, London sale of FINE CLOCKS 20th June 2012 (lot 7) for £2,000. Although unsigned, the present clock is of notably fine quality with distinctive silvered platform and engraved fretwork panels reminiscent of those sometimes seen on examples by LeRoy et Fils and E. Maurice and Company; indeed examples by each of these makers, incorporating similar panels, were sold in these rooms on 21st April 2021 (lot 106) and 2nd March 2022 (lot 166) respectively. The scroll-shaped handle and ogee over stepped moulded skirt base are distinctive features which set the present case aside from the standard 'anglaise riche' design which generally incorporate an angular scroll to the handle and plain plinth base. The castings for the base mouldings, however, mirror those on a 'cariatides' case by Henri Jacot illustrated in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS, Their history and development on page 172 (Plate VII/24). As this particular variant of 'cariatides' case was favoured by Jacot the presence of these castings on the case of the present clock would suggest a connection to the workshop of Henri Jacot. Interestingly a grande-sonnerie striking clock with an identical pattern of 'cariatides' case to that illustrated by Allix and Bonnert, but housing a movement exhibiting identical details, such as pattern of winding arrow and annotations to the backplate, to the present clock, was sold in these rooms (in partially dismantled condition) 6th October 2021 (lot 111).  Henri Jacot is recorded by Allix as working from 31 Rue de Montmorency, Paris as well as possibly having a factory in Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont. The business was awarded Bronze Medals at the Paris 'Exposition' in 1855 and in London 1862; Silver in Paris 1867, 78 and 89 and Gold, again in Paris, 1890. Although Charles Allix notes that Henry Jacot senior died in 1868 and was succeeded by his nephew of the same name further research by Leigh Extence has revealed that after his death Henri's business was actually continued by his brother Julien who was essentially only 'keeping the bench warm' until his son, and Henri's nephew Albert, was able to take over and move the concern forward in 1874. The business is thought to have continued until around 1920. Condition Report: Movement is complete and appears all-original with no visible evidence of alteration or with noticeable replacements. Clock is running with the grande-sonnerie striking operating correctly including the selection lever to the base. The alarm is also in working condition. Although in full working condition the movement would probably benefit form a gentle clean and service. The dial appears free from visible damage or other faults. The case is in fine condition with minimal mellowing to the gilding. The glasses are free from visible damage/chips. The underside has a noticeable scratch through part of the strike selectin text and some slight discolouration otherwise is in fine condition. The protective case is structurally sound but has significant wear and losses to the leather covering and wear/fading to interior. The strap handle is also missing as is the slide-in shutter for the front aperture.Clock has a winding/setting key. Condition Report Disclaimer

A FRENCH LACQUERED BRASS CORNICHE CASED CARRIAGE CLOCKUNSIGNED, THIRD QUARTER OF THE 19th CENTURYThe eight-day two train bell striking movement with silvered platform lever escapement regulated by sprung bimetallic balance, the frontplate stamped with a cruciform motif next to number 687 and an inverted V to lower edge, the rectangular white enamel Roman numeral dial with blued spade hands, the bevel-glazed corniche case with hinged carrying handle over cavetto cornice with rounded angles and caddy moulded uprights to angles, the rear with hinged door, on cavetto moulded skirt base incorporating bracket feet to angles.14cm (5.5ins) high with handle down, 9cm (3.5ins) wide, 8cm (3.125ins) deep. The case of the current clock is a little unusual in that the top cornice section is secured directly to the corner uprights essentially forming a 'one-piece' arrangement. The bosses supporting the carrying handle hinge knuckles are also more prominent than on other cases of related design. These details would suggest that the present case is a notably early version of the corniche design/variant. Condition Report: The movement is in clean condition with no visible evidence of alteration or notable replacements. The going train is working but the mainspring for the strike train is broken hence requires replacement. The dial has a very light hairline crack across the lower left-hand corner (only visible on very close examination (almost undetectable with the naked eye). The case is in good original condition with faults limited to some slight surface bruising to one of the rear uprights and overall light degradation to the lacquered finish. Has a winding key but no travelling case. Condition Report Disclaimer
