Thomas Cole 'inventor, designer and maker...' exhibited six items in the 1851 Great Exhibition. This can be viewed as the start of the fashion for jewel-like engraved gilt brass timepieces that held such sway in the second half of the 19th century, an appreciation that still continues to this day. The six pieces included an inkstand with calendar and thermometer, an 8-day 'night and day' clock and a quarter-repeating flat 8-day clock. Just four years later at the Paris Exhibition, he was told by judges that he held '...a very distinguished position for true artistic excellence and superior workmanship.' He was elected to the Royal Society of Arts in 1861 and later admitted to the British Horological Institute, a bastion in which his horologically-minded brother James Ferguson Cole played a pivotal role. In 1862 both brothers exhibited at the London International Exhibition and Thomas was awarded a medal for 'excellence of taste and design'. Charles Frodsham, Secretary of the Jury, was moved to report that '...nothing could exceed the beauty of design and good taste of the varied models and general excellence of workmanship.' C.F. Hancock were one of the early retailers of Cole's work. The firm were established in 1848 and underwent several changes in name and address over the decades into the 20th century. They were jewellers and silversmiths to many of the crowned heads of Europe and Exhibition Medal winners in 1851, 1855, 1867 and 1873. C.F.Hancock Son & Co are listed as working from 1867-1870 (see Hawkins, J.B. (1975) Thomas Cole & Victorian Clockmaking.
