A fine and rare second half of the 19th century French ormolu month-going, perpetual calendar centre-seconds table regulator with barometer, twin thermometers and moonphase indication and special visible escapement to a gridiron pendulumLe Roy & Fils, Palais Royal, Gal(er)ie. Montpensier 13 & 15, Paris The substantial arched case surmounted by a shallow urn finial over bevelled glass panels and side pilasters, on a moulded base and squat bun feet, the arched glazed front set with six enamel dials; the time read against a Roman chapter ring with signed recessed centre displaying the special single-beat escapement, set over a pair of 2.5 inch dials giving the moons age and phase together with the day of the week, the other displaying the date and month, the lower third of the dial plate set with a metallic barometer giving seven weather predictions in French, flanked by an alcohol centigrade/reamur thermometer and a mercury Fahrenheit/reamur thermometer. The clock movement with large rectangular plates united by heavy pillars, the substantial zinc and steel gridiron pendulum with large bob suspended from an elaborate mount, rack striking the hours and the half-hours on a bell, the calendar dial with year setting dial to the rear. 57cms (22ins) high (1)Footnotes:This rare and unusual escapement is reserved for the finest French table regulators and often combined with additional complex features such as perpetual calendar, a sweep seconds hand and a temperature compensating pendulum. The pendulum on the current clock is a fine half-seconds beating brass and zinc gridiron type.The very fine ratchet shaped teeth of the escape wheel are for locking alone, eliminating the extensive engaging friction normally witnessed with the entry pallet of other anchor pattern escapements. There are two points of action on this escape wheel; locking on the long teeth and impulse by the horizontal pins on the lesser diameter of the rim of the wheel on the exit pallet. The impulse plane on the exit pallet, with the lesser force of disengaging friction, is a concave curve. This curve is mapped providing an increasing impulse in the wider arcs of the pendulum. With the action of the escape wheel on only every second beat, the sweep hand indicates full seconds. With the high precision required in the layout and manufacture, this escapement is capable of providing impressive accuracy over extended periods, whilst the unusual kinetic intermittent action is a fascinating visual diversion.Le Roy et Fils was founded in 1785 by Basile Charles le Roy (1765-1839) and was continued by his son, Charles-Louis Le Roy.The firm prospered after the French Revolution, and were appointed clockmaker to Napoleon I and later, the restored Bourbons.Le Roy opened their first shop in London in Regent Street in 1854 and later in New Bond Street in 1885. Le Roy et Fils became a Royal Warrant holder for Queen Victoria in 1864, the only foreign clockmaker with a British Royal Warrant.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A fine second half of the 18th century brass-mounted mahogany stick barometer with hygrometer and thermometerGeorge Adams, No.60 Fleet Street, London. Instrument Maker to his MajestyThe arched case with adjustable wheatear hygrometer set above a hinged glazed hood door over a long trunk terminating in a hemispherical cistern cover, the centre of the trunk inset with an imposing mercury thermometer behind a hinged glazed door, the flat bulb measuring 3 inches in length and registering against a scale marked from 25 to 95 degrees, the lower numerals bracketed as 'WINTER', the upper bracketed as 'SUMMER', the signed silvered dial above reading from 28-31 inches and with manual vernier scale, with three weather predictions. 108cms (42 1/2ins) high (1)Footnotes:George Adams was arguably the best known and respected maker of scientific instruments in the latter half of the 18th century. King George III appointed Adams to be his Mathematical Instrument Maker in 1760, and about 20% of the Royal Collection emanated from his Fleet Street workshop. The firm passed to George's son, George Junior and then to Dudley. Perhaps his most iconic instrument is the silver 'New Universal' microscope formed in solid silver now on display at the Science Museum, dating to about the same time as the current lot, 1763.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

A good late 18th century mahogany stick barometer with hygrometer and thermometerBenjamin Martin, LondonThe arched case surmounted by an engraved hygrometer scale read via a fancy blued steel hand, over carved decoration and canted front angles, the long trunk with visible tube framed by a moulded edge terminating in a hemispherical cistern cover, the signed silvered dial mounted with a mercury thermometer and manual vernier reading against a 27 to 31 inch scale, with seven weather predictions. 97cms (38ins) high (1)Footnotes:Benjamin Martin described this type of barometer as a 'Triple Weather Glass' or 'Aerometrum Magnum'. Perhaps it's finest attribute is the improved hygrometer which works by means of an extended gut line mounted at the rear of the case, one end is fixed and the other is held under tension via a spring loaded rack and pinion set-up. Martin (1704-1782) was a skilled scientific instrument maker, after establishing a school in Chichester during his late twenties, from 1738 onwards he went on to present lectures and demonstrations on experimental philosophy to audiences in Reading, Bristol, Bath and London. From 1756 he returned to London where he worked as an optician and made scientific instruments and globes. He was also an author covering topics such as natural philosophy, theology, mathematics, language and geography. On 14th January 1782, Joshua Lover Martin applied for a patent which was to produce a revolution in manufactuing: it was for the process of tude-drawing. Unfortunately by the time the patent was granted on 28th March, his father Benjamin, whose invention it was, had died - bankrupt.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

She invented and patented a 'Mariner's Calculator' in 1834 to establish the true time and altitude while at sea, which unfortunately was turned down by the Admiralty for being too delicate for the 'clumsy fingers of seamen' . Nevertheless her many publications and inventions garnered her awards from the kings of Prussia and Holland, as well as the Pope for her contribution to the maritime community, and the Admiralty awarded her a Civil List pension towards the end of her life. A night telescope made by Taylor is in the Greenwich National Maritime Museum, and other works are held in science museums and library collections around the world.
