A GEORGE II GREEN JAPANNED EIGHT-DAY LONGCASE CLOCK WITH MOONPHASEUnsigned, probably London, circa 1735The five finned pillar rack and bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by seconds pendulum, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with subsidiary seconds dial and cross-hatch border engraved calendar aperture to the matted centre within applied Roman numeral chapter ring with fleur-de-lys half hour markers and Arabic five minutes to outer track, with scroll pierced steel hands and mask centred scroll cast spandrels to angles within herringbone engraved border continuing up over the arch incorporating rolling moonphase calibrated with the age of the moon to the circumference of the disc and with fine foliate scroll infill, the green japanned case with domed caddy upstand, complex moulded cornice and gilt leaf decorated over trellis panel bordered glazed hood door applied with fluted three-quarter columns to front angles, the sides with rectangular windows and conforming quarter columns set against bargeboards at the rear, the trunk with leaf painted throat over break-arch door decorated in raised polychrome and gilt with oriental figures within a stylised garden trellis landscape, the surround with gilt floral painted upper quadrants and panelled borders, the sides with large leafy sprays, the plinth base with further naturalistic landscape within conforming surround over moulded double skirt, (in neglected unrestored condition).230cm (90.5ins) high, 53.5cm (21ins) wide, 25.5cm (10ins) deep.Condition Report: Movement has survived in original condition with the only noticeable replacements being the escapewheel and pallets which are 19th century 'service' replacements. Although the movement is essentially in working condition it is somewhat dirty/neglected hence will require a gentle clean/service before putting to use. The dial is missing its shunt lever for the moon-disc hence moonphase is currently not operational. The disc itself is in sound condition but has noticeable wear to painted elements. The dial has been cleaned back hence no longer has silvering or lacquered finishes however all engraving, matting and other details are in good condition. The hands are relatively modern replacements. The movement rests on a replacement mahogany seatboard but at the correct level in the case (no visible evidence of alteration to the case trunk side uprights/cheeks) hence movement and dial may well be original to the case but due to the seatboard being a replacement no categorical assurances can be made. The case is generally complete and in original unrestored condition but is the base is loose with breaks to the plinth top mouldings and the case is generally in tired condition hence will require attention. The hood originally had fretwork panel infill to either side of the arch above the dial, these have been replaced with painted panels. The arch itself has a small section of moulding missing from the curve and the mask around the dial is lacking most of its slender quarter-round moulding which would have originally bordered the dial plate. The surface finish is original but is dirty/worn and there are bumps, scuffs, shrinkage cracking and wear throughout.Clock has a pendulum, two lead weights, a case key but no winder.

A WILLIAM III WALNUT AND FLORAL MARQUETRY EIGHT-DAY LONGCASE CLOCKUnsigned, circa 1695The five finned pillar bell inside countwheel bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by seconds period pendulum, 11 inch square brass dial with ringed decoration to the subsidiary seconds dial, winding holes, and the foliate scroll border engraved calendar aperture to the rosette decorated matted centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised sword hilt half hour markers and Arabic five minutes to the narrow outer track, with pierced sculpted steel hands and mask and scroll cast spandrels to angles with scroll engraved infill to the margins between, in a case with moulded cornice and plain frieze to lintel over leafy trail inlaid fixed dial surround and rectangular windows to the sides of the hood, the trunk with convex walnut veneered throat moulding over 41.5 inch rectangular door centred with an oval lenticle and with three shaped marquetry panels decorated with bird inhabited floral sprays and scrolling foliage on an ebonised ground within a figured walnut field, the sides veneered with twin panels within crossbanded borders, the base with stepped ogee top moulding and conforming rectangular marquetry panel over later moulded ebonised skirt.208cm (82ins) high, 42cm (16.5ins) wide, 23cm (9ins) deep.Condition Report: Movement is in clean working condition and appears all original with no evidence of alteration or significant replacements. The dial is in clean condition with only a few very light spots of discolouration to the silvering of the chapter ring; the hands appear original although both have historic repairs. The movement rests on a replacement seatboard directly onto the side uprights of the trunk (cheeks). The seatboard has been thinned at each end to align the dial down slightly in the hood aperture; the presence of this detail (and the fact that the seatboard is a replacement) means that we can offer no firm assurances that the movement and dial are original to the case although they would seem to go together extremely well.The case is generally in sound original condition. The hood was originally made to rise but has since been converted to slide forward however fortunately the front has not been adapted to incorporate an opening door. The slip that borders the rear top edge is a replacement otherwise appears all original. The front glass is lacking and the angles would have originally been fitted with twist columns together with quarter columns against bargeboards to each side at the rear. The trunk is in good condition, the door retains its original hinges but the lock is a replacement. The door has some slight shrinkage cracking to the veneers towards both the top and lower edges from where the door panel has moved slightly against the horizontal clamps applied to the upper and lower edges of the panel. This detail is typical/expected on marquetry cases and is not problematic as forms part of the overall sense of age/patina. The marquetry is in good condition although areas of green have been touched-in by hand. There is slight old worm damage to the border inlay and a small veneer patch repair to the upper edge of the surround. Both sides of the trunk are in good condition. The marquetry to the base appears original as does the structure behind. There is a slight horizontal shrinkage crack across the marquetry panel and the crossbanded border has a few small historic veneer patch repairs. The side veneers are in good condition although the right hand side shows some movement/shrinkage in the panel. The backboard and sides of the trunk do not continue all the way down into the base (as would be expected in a case of this type) but terminate around four inches short of the lower edge of the box of the base. However it would appear that the case was originally made with this detail rather than being indicative of the structure being cut/reduced at some point. Faults to the case are otherwise limited to relatively minor bumps, scuffs, shrinkage, small amount of historic worm holes and other blemishes commensurate with age.Generally a good honest example that would potentially respond very well to a relatively small amount of work to the case. Clock has pendulum, two cast iron weights, case key and a crank winder. Condition Report Disclaimer
