A Regency ormolu and patinated bronze figural mantel timepiece Unsigned but probably by Baetens, London, circa 1825 The circular four columnar pillar eight-day single chain fusee movement with anchor escapement regulated by a lenticular bob pendulum, the 3.5 inch circular white enamel Roman numeral dial with Arabic fifteen minutes to the outer minute track and steel moon hands within a gilt serpent scale milled bezel, the case with surmount cast as an eagle perched on a ball and ribbon-tied oak leaf crest draped over the apex of the drum housing the movement, cradled on honeysuckle decorated scroll supports applied to a relief floral garland decorated upstand flanked by a pair of figures each cast as recumbent Classical females reading a folio, the base applied with Satyr masks flanked by conforming floral swags, raised on engine-turned toupe feet, 32cm (30.5ins) high. Several models of this timepiece sharing the same castings, form and specification are known signed either by Joseph van Baetens, F.Baetens or just Beatens who were a family firm of bronziers who also produced timepieces. Working in a similar vain to the Vulliamy family they were based at 23 Gerard Street, Soho, and according to Baillie, G.H. (in Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World) were active around 1832. The frontplate of the current lot is finely scratch-engraved with the inscription Edward Tupman, May 6th 1840. The Tupman family were another firm of clockmakers and retailers based in nearby Great Russell Street, Bloomsbury. This is probably a repairer’s mark recording the ‘first service’ of the clock perhaps by the same business who supplied/retailed the timepiece a decade or so earlier.
A fine George IV brass mounted carriage clock with pull-trip repeat James McCabe, London, circa 1830 The five pillar twin chain fusee movement with lever escapement set along with all wheel-work above the centre wheel within a separate four pillar subframe vertically mounted on the backplate with regulation by sprung gold three-arm balance with cabochon endstone, over vertical hour bell to centre and engraved signature Ja’s McCabe, Royal Exchange, London to lower edge, the 3,25 inch circular gilt Roman numeral dial with ‘watered silk’ engine turned centre and inscribed JA’S McCABE ROYAL EXCHANGE, LONDON, 1646 to the inside edge of the chapter ring, with blued steel moon hands set behind crisply moulded fixed convex glazed cast bezel within surround modelled as a snake consuming its own tail, the architectural pedimented case with block upstand incorporating brass inset plate fitted with concealed hinged carrying handle and engraved JAMES CUDDY ESQ’R and acroteria finials over triangular tympanum and simple brass cornice moulding, the full-height front door with concave-topped brass line strung panel beneath dial aperture flanked by brass edged angles, the sides and rear door with brass fillet inset arched windows, on shallow skirt base with brass top moulding and bun feet, the seatboard and rear lower rail of the case each stamped with serial number 1646, 24cm (9.5ins) high with handle down. Provenance: From the name engraved to the brass plate (incorporating concealed hinged carrying handle) the current lot was most likely originally supplied to a gentleman with the name James Cuddy, who was probably of Irish origin. Indeed a surgeon of this name, who originated from Norther Ireland, served at the Madras Establishment (from 1805) eventually rising to the rank of Superintendent Surgeon in 1828. Cuddy returned to Europe in 1832 before going back to Madras in 1834 where he was appointed onto the medical board in 1838; regrettably Cuddy died in 1841 just as he was looking to retire to homeland and was buried in India. Although there is no record to indicate that the current lot was supplied to this gentleman his status and lifestyle certainly fits hence it would be tantalising to speculate that he acquired it during his return to Europe in 1832-34. Literature: The current lot is illustrated and described in Roberts, Derek CARRIAGE and Other Travelling CLOCKS on page 289 (Figs. 20-21) where it is described as being veneered in partridge wood and having the lowest serial number for a carriage clock by McCabe seen by the author. James McCabe senior was born in Belfast but moved to London in the 1770’s first working at 11 Bells Buildings, Fleet Street before moving to 34 King Street, Cheapside in 1783. After a short spell there he relocated to number 8 in 1788 where he remained until finally settling at 97 Cornhill in 1804. James McCabe gained his freedom of the Clockmaker’s Company in 1786 and was appointed Warden in 1811, the year of his death. McCabe was succeeded by his son of the same name who was to become one of the most successful English clock and watchmakers of the 19th century.James McCabe junior was apprenticed to Reid and Auld of Edinburgh and was admitted to the clockmakers company as a Free Brother in 1822. Around this time McCabe entered into short lived partnership with Strahan (probably Charles who gained his freedom of the Clockmaker’s Company in 1815). From 1826 McCabe managed the business alone from 97 Cornhill until 1838 when he was forced to relocate to 32 Cornhill due to a major fire at the Royal Exchange. It was at this time (1825-43) that Thomas Cole worked for McCabe before setting up his own to produce distinctive and highly decorative timepieces in his own unmistakable style. The business was subsequently continued by Robert Jeremy until his retirement in 1883. The current lot is unusual in that it has a case made from timber (albeit with extensive brass fittings) rather than entirely of brass. However the use of wood and brass very much lends itself to the architectural nature of the design. The combination of raised block/tablet upstand and acroteria finials to the pediment combined with the simplified mouldings and full-arch side and rear apertures is reminiscent of the ‘stripped-back’ Classicism pioneered by the Architect Sir John Soane in the early 19th century. Indeed when considering these details, and the overall sophisticated aesthetic quality of the current lot, it would have been the height of fashion when it was made.
Ï’ A silver cased verge pocket watch The movement signed for Henry Hindley, York, circa 1750 The gilt full plate fusee movement with four square section baluster pillars, scroll-pierced fusee stop-iron block and verge escapement regulated by sprung three-arm steel monometallic balance set beneath fine grotesque mask and foliate scroll engraved and pierced balance cock with faceted diamond endstone and conforming applied infill plate around the silvered regulation disc opposing engraved signature H. Hindley. York 842, with gilt dust cap similarly signed and later circular white enamel Roman numeral dial with gilt spade hands, now in a silver case with suspension post fitted with hinged loop, indistinct marks probably for London 1827, the backplate 3.5cm (1.25ins) dialmeter; the case 4.3cm (1.75ins) diameter, and an Anglo-Indian ivory mounted tortoiseshell display case, Vizagapatam, India, mid to late 19th century, the sandalwood interior with hinged watch-holder faced with fine foliate scroll engraved ivory and with pivoted strut to rear, the exterior modelled as a domed casket applied with figural engraved fretwork oval panel between entwined scroll decorated studded straps within ropetwist border applied with further smaller angle straps to lid, the front sides and rear with further fretwork panels and straps, on small reeded silver coloured metal feet, 11.5cm (4.5ins) long, (2). Henry Hindley was born in Great Harwood, near Blackburn, Lancashire 1699, little is known about his early life, however by the mid 1720s he was making clocks in Wigan where he repaired the church clock in 1726. Hindley moved with his young family (including his son, Joseph born 1728) to the prosperous city of York where, after making clocks for the Mansion House and Guildhall, he gained his Freedom of the city in 1732. Hindley s talents were such that he equipped his workshop with tools of his own design including an important dividing and wheel cutting engine, a screw cutting lathe and a fusee engine. As well as domestic clocks Hindley received commissions for several turret clocks including York Minster and supplied a range of scientific instruments including two important equatorial telescopes for the Duke of Norfolk and William Constable. By the 1760 s Hindley s health had deteriorated to the extent that an ever increasing proportion of the business was handled by his son Joseph. Henry died in 1771 with his son and successor Joseph unfortunately dying just three years later in 1774, before he had had the opportunity to stamp his own mark on the family firm. Hindley s work demonstrates a highly inventive exacting approach with each clock perhaps varying in some way to its predecessor ensuring constant refinement in design and layout. The quality of the finish of his work is generally exceptional being comparable to the very best London makers of the period which is why many collectors refer to Hindley as the Tompion of the North. The highly decorative and finely executed watch case included in the current lot is a fine example from the Indian Vizagapatam workshops made for the British market during the time of Colonial rule. Stylistically the pierced panels and simulated strap decoration applied to the current lot would date it most likely to the third quarter of the 19th century as earlier pieces tended to be entirely veneered in ivory and often engraved with Neo-Classical motifs.

A French Louis XV style ormolu mantel clock Raingo Freres, Paris, circa 1870 The eight-day circular two train countwheel bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by disc bob pendulum with silk suspension, the backplate stamped with serial number 2916 over RAINGOFRERES, Paris roundel, the circular engine turned silvered brass Roman numeral dial incorporating curved vacant arched name panel between the winding holes and with blued steel hands within concentric gilt bead cast bezel, the waisted cast rococo case with leafy surmount over scalloped dial surround and blind lattice panel decorated sides over conforming apron panel to front and on generous foliate scroll cast and chased supports, the rear with hinged circular fretwork cover, 51cm (20ins) high.
A rare rose-gilt brass 'Atmos' timepiece Jaeger-LeCoultre for Türler, model 519, late 1940’s The single train movement wound via the expansion and contraction of an aneroid chamber mounted to the rear of the mechanism and regulated by torsion escapement with rotating balance suspended at the base of the movement and numbered 23719 to suspension platform, the circular rose-gilt on cream baton numeral chapter ring with Arabic quarters and inscribed TURLER to the bezel at six o’clock, the rectangular glazed case with canted angles to the lift-off ‘bell jar’ cover over conforming plinth base incorporating bubble level within inscribed border ATMOS, JAEGER LECOULTRE, FAB. SUISSE, SWISS MADE to the engine-turned interior, with balance locking lever to front and adjustable feet to underside, 23.5cm (9.25ins) high. According to John Hubby of the NAWCC Jaeger-LeCoultre sold Atmos clocks with the Türler name inscribed on the bezel or imprinted on the dial from circa 1935 to 1955. There however appears to be no other evidence of a commercial arrangement Jaeger LeCoultre and the watchmaking firm Türler.
A rare French gilt brass ‘humpback’ cased petit sonnerie striking carriage clock with push-button repeat and alarm L. Leroy et Cie, Paris, circa 1900 The eight-day two train movement ting-tang striking the quarters on a graduated pair of gongs and sounding the hour on the larger of the two, with silvered platform lever escapement and alarm set via a small silvered Arabic numeral dial positioned the winding squares and sounding on the smaller gong, the backplate signed L. Leroy & Cie, 7. B’d de la Madeleine, Paris to upper margin and numbered 18080 to centre, the 3.25 inch wide engine-turned silvered brass arched dial with Roman numeral chapter ring and gilt spade hands over repeat signature L. LEROY & CIE, 7. BOUL’D DE LA MADALEINE, PARIS inscribed in three lines onto small chamfered panel reserves, the arched gilt brass case with hinged gilt oval pendant handle over bevel-glazed moulded dial aperture and slender architectural stepped ogee shoulder mouldings to each side, the rear with hinged door and standing on four generous bun feet, the underside with strike selection lever inscribed Silence/Sonnerie, 15cm (6ins) high excluding handle; with original blue velvet black leather covered travelling case stamped gold lettering L. LEROY & CIE to front edge. Provenance: Sold at Christies, South Kensington, London The Dr. Eugene and Rose Antelis Collection of Important French Carriage Clocks 26th November 1998 (lot 76) for a premium inclusive £2,990. The firm of 'L. Leroy & Cie' can be traced back to 1785 when the business was founded by Basille Charles Le Roy at 60 Galerie de Pierre, Palais Royal, Paris. During the Revolutionary years the firm relocated to 88 Rue de L'Egalite before finally settling at Galerie Montpensier, 13 and 15 Palais Royal. In 1828 Basille Charles died leaving the business to his son, Charles-Louis, who continued producing clocks signed 'Le Roy & Fils' until 1845 when the firm was sold to his former employee Casimir Halley Desfontaines; who in turn was succeeded by his son M. George Halley Desfontaines in 1883. In 1888 M. George Halley died leaving the business to his brother Jules Halley who then took-in as a partner Louis Leroy (apparently no relation to the founders of the firm). In 1899 the firm left Palais Royal and moved to Boulevard de La Madeleine where it continued trading in the hands of various successors until well into the 20th century.The arched ‘humpback’ form of the case of current lot was most likely first used by Abraham-Louis Breguet in around 1822 (see Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS, Their history and development page 43). During the latter years of the 19th century this style of case was revived with English makers such as Jump and Nicole Nielsen producing highly complicated carriage clocks in the Breguet tradition. The current lot would almost certainly have been made to follow this fashion with the engine turned dial echoing that of Breguet. The classic simplicity of the ‘humpback’ carriage clock remains popular today as demonstrated by the premium inclusive £5,312 achieved for a closely related (but hour striking only) example, also by Leroy (No. 17894), sold at Bonhams, London Fine Clocks, 19th June 2019 (lot 4).
ϒA late Victorian walnut magazine of draughtsman’s drawing instruments W.F. Stanley, London, circa 1890 The interior with blue moire silk padded lining to lid inscribed in gilt W.F.

The presence of the Railway Approach address within the gilt on silk trade label to the interior of the lid of the current lot would indicate a date of around 1890.

A fine and rare French engraved gilt brass five minute-repeating carriage clock with ‘Dumb-Striking’ Indistinctly signed, late 19th century The eight-day gong hour-striking movement with silvered platform lever escapement and five minute repeat on a second smaller gong, the rear with plunger operated hammer arrest lever and stamped with small indistinct trademark serial number 20721 to lower margin, the dial with rectangular gilt engine-turned mask enclosing an inset Roman numeral enamel hour disc with red Arabic five minutes to outer track and blued steel moon hands, the cannelee engraved satin gilt bevel glazed case with hinged carrying handle over oval panel with hinged carrying handle to the glazed oval panel centred rococo scroll decorated top incorporating Minutes and Hours repeat plungers to front edge and a further plunger labelled Dumb Striking to the rear, with repeating foliate motif top mouldings and uprights over rococo scroll decorated base, 14cm (5.5ins) high. Five-minute repeating clocks are discussed in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS, Their history and development on pages 197-98. Of the two variations described by Allix the current lot falls into the first with the strike-work being related to that of a grande or petit sonnerie striking clock. However the current lot is unusual in being of this type but having separate plungers for sounding full five minute repeat or hours only as well as well as ‘dumb striking’. Another closely related example with this unusual configuration (housed in a plain unengraved case) was sold at Christies, South Kensington, London The Dr. Eugene and Rose Antelis Collection of Important French Carriage Clocks 26th November 1998 (lot 106).
A French Louis Philippe ormolu and green marble mantel clock J. Charles, Paris, circa 1840 The eight-day circular two train countwheel bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by disc bob pendulum with silk suspension, the backplate stamped with serial number 811 over J. CHARLES, A PARIS oval trademark, MEDAILLE D’OR, Paris, 1827 roundel, and further number 71 32, the circular engine turned silvered brass Roman numeral cartouche dial with oval panel inscribed J. Charles, A PARIS to centre and with wavy outer minute track, with blued steel moon hands within a concentric bead cast moulded bezel, the case with stylised scroll cast crest to the back panel upstand cast to resemble a bookcase with desk stand flanked by conforming side scrolls to the foreground, the dial flanked by winged leafy term mounts to front angles over veined grey marble block base, on gilt shallow skirt with milled bun feet, 42cm (16.5ins) high.
An 18 carat gold open faced lever pocket watch with centre seconds Unsigned, Lancashire/London, 1867 The three-quarter plate frosted gilt fusee movement originally with Morton’s patent detached escapement but now converted to standard detached lever regulated by sprung split bimetallic balance with ruby cabochon endstone, the backplate inscribed Patent Union Chronometer, 2664, the white enamel Roman numeral dial inscribed CHRONOMETER, 2664 to the slightly recessed centre, with gilt spade hour and minute hands and blued steel centre seconds hand, the case with engine-turned rear cover and suspension post fitted with hinged loop, the interior numbered 2664 and hallmarked for London 1867 maker’s mark CG for Caroline Green, backplate 44mm (1.75ins) diameter, the case 5cm (2ins) diameter. The current lot belongs to a series of watches extensively described in Penney, David HOROLOGICAL Profiles - Profile No 1. Morton’s Patent Watches. Penney indicates (on page 5) that although unsigned examples are known the movements belong to a single numerical sequence. Marks relating to several movement makers in Prescott are also noted which suggests that this series were all made in Prescott, Lancashire. A list of eighteen recorded serial numbers are subsequently provided with 2522 dating to 1866 and 2695 dating to 1867; the current lot (number 2664) falls between these two and correlates with the 1867 hallmark. Regrettably the escapement has been converted to standard detached lever however the original balance (including the roller and passing flat to the balance arbor) survives and the trains appear unaltered.
