A RARE early 19TH CENTURY JAPANESE SHITAN WOOD SHAKU DOKEI timepiece IN ORIGINAL CASE WITH complete set of calendar platesKanshutei (寛集äº), 1827The shaped aperture for hanging on the wall above a front glazed hood and a long trunk terminating in a key drawer with key. The seven interchangeable brass inlaid time/calendar plates with pierced brass pointer connected to the hidden lead weight. The movement with floral engraved front plate flanked by two decorative turned brass pillars, the verge escapement with balance wheel and elaborately turned crown wheel post. Sold with the original transport/presentation box and a green silk storage pouch for the calendar plates when not in use. 45.5cms (17.5ins) high. The box 47cms (18.5ins) long. Footnotes:Beginning in 1873 Japan converted their national time system from variable hours tracking the seasons to equally divided hours. Before this date, most clocks made in Japan had dials and striking that reflected a day being variably divided into six toki during the day, and six during the night. The exact length of the toki would vary depending on season; however, there would always be six divisions in both day and night. The numbers used to refer to each toki were a sequence from 4-9 with 9 representing midnight, 6 representing dawn down to 4, before repeating the sequence with 9 representing midday and 6 representing dusk; the numerals would all be represented by animals as well, though twelve animals were used so that in conversation 'the toki of the Horse' clearly referred to 9 during the day (or Noon), whereas 'the toki of the Rat' was 9 during the night (midnight). The Shaku-dokei were adapted to account for the temporal hours by either having movable toki plaques or having replacement toki plates which would be replaced every 13 days or so to account for the variability. This was usually done by a 'clock doctor' who would know which plate to use, however, later clocks would have numbered plates, to let the owner know when each plate should be removed. This is the case for the clock being offered; each toki plate is labelled at the top with one or two different months, and whether the plate belongs to 節 (setsu, the commencement of the 'month') or ä¸ (chÅ«ki or chÅ«-setsu, the midpoint of the month). It is rare to have a complete set of plates with these clocks as they tended to be lost or discarded once equal hour time was mandated, the clocks being regarded as outdated and of little value. This clock likely dates to before 1873, as the toki plates are of unequal hours, but is a later example, as it has a balance wheel escapement, rather then foliot, as well as 'month' specific toki plates. Beyond this, dating is notoriously difficult as the clocks would be made a single individual; there were no mass-produced movements which where then finished, or a network of individuals making a single component. One individual made every component, meaning that style and form would be partially at the whim of the maker and partially at the whim of the client.The lid of the box is labelled 'Mulberry box with lid seven panels shaku dokei', with the back of one of the panels being labelled with the date, '10th month in the 10th year of Bunsei era' (1827 by the modern Gregorian calendar) and the maker's name, Kanshutei, below.

He was originally from Camelford in Cornwall, where his grandfather had been the Mayor between 1689-1695. His family had been living in the county since at least the 1500's. In 1745, he married Elizabeth Dinham and they had two children; a son Edmund, who married and returned to Cornwall and a daughter, Elizabeth, who sadly died in 1753. He died on 1st October 1796 and his will describes him as watch maker working from premises at 31 Hatton Garden, where he had been since 1780, and living at that time in St. Andrew, Holborn. One of his executors is listed simply as 'Elliot', there were several clock and watchmakers of this name in London around this time, and it is quite possible that one of his executors was a fellow horologist. In the will he instructed his executor to sell off the Hatton Garden premises in order to pay for his bequests and any outstanding debts. His bequests included funds for his wife to be kept for the rest of her life; £20 to his nephew John and John's two daughters, as well as bequeathing John his full wardrobe; £20 to his servant, Anne, and £20 to his executor. Beyond these bequests, he wanted the remaining funds to be divided equally between his grandchildren when each reached 21 years of age; and his son Edmund's wife, should she be a widow at that time The current clock is very similar to another Perpetual calendar longcase by Prideaux, illustrated on pg. 416, Figure 11/55, in The Longcase Clock by Tom Robinson. It has been suggested that, because the calendar mechanism is so complicated, yet practically identical to that of an Eardley Norton perpetual calendar longcase, both makers were using the same supplier.
