A REGENCY ORMOLU AND WHITE MARBLE FIGURAL LIBRARY MANTEL TIMEPIECE UNSIGNED BUT PROBABLY BY THOMAS WEEKS, LONDON, CIRCA 1815The circular three columnar pillar single fusee movement with anchor escapement regulated by disc bob pendulum, the 3.5 inch circular white Roman numeral enamel dial with steel hands within an engine-milled gilt bezel, the case surmounted with a figure of an eagle with outstretched wings over drum supported on foliate scroll volutes set on a block fronted with and inset gilt foliate cast frieze, flanked by opposing gilt seated Classical females each reading a book, the marble plinth base applied with central gilt rosette flanked by recessed gilt leafy scroll inset panels over extended toupe feet.31cm (12.25ins) high, 35cm (13.75ins) wide, 7.5cm (3ins) deep. The castings used for the foliate decoration to the frieze beneath the dial and for the figures can be directly compared to those on a timepiece with centre-seconds signed 'Semaine' for Thomas Weeks sold at Christies, London sale of IMPORTANT CLOCKS AND BAROMETERS 2nd July 2004 (lot 67) for £8,365. Thomas Weeks was renowned for the mechanical curiosities exhibited at the eponymous Museum and adjoining shop he established in about 1797 at 3 and 4 Titchbourne Street, London. His collection was sold at auction after his death in 1834. Condition Report: The movement is in working condition however a clean and service is advised. The centre wheel and second wheel have had brass sleeve repairs to their arbors and the latter has a screw bush inserted for the front pivot. The pendulum is a replacement and the length is such that the clock now has extensions to the feet to raise it by around 2cm which would suggest that the movement and dial are possibly not original to the case. Notwithstanding this the mechanism is otherwise a perfect fit. There are also two clusters of holes on the backplate (at 4 o'clock and 10 o'clock) suggesting that securing brackets may have once been fitted to the movement -there are corresponding holes to the case suggesting that movement and dial are original. The dial has a series of hairline cracks and an area of filling adjacent to the winding hole. The case is generally in good original condition however the marble has overall surface grime/probably staining. It would therefore very much benefit from dismantling and having the marble cleaned. The rear right hand foot area has repaired (re-stuck) chip to the marble and there is overall rubbing/rounding to the edges. The mounts are in fine condition retaining their original gilding albeit with some oxidation and light rubbing; the rosette applied to the centre of the base platform may be a replacement.Timepiece has a pendulum and a winding key.
