He was perhaps the most prolific maker of high quality bracket clocks in Bristol during the middle of the 18th century as several examples are known including a very rare miniature walnut model with 4 inch dial and a quarter chiming clock with moonphase (illustrated in Barder, R.C. Georgian Bracket Clocks on page 112). A mahogany table clock by Joseph Smith was sold in these rooms on 17th February 2010 (lot 41).

A fine George III mahogany longcase clock with dual Julian and Gregorian calendar indication and deadbeat escapement. George Lindsay with movement attributed to the workshop of George Graham, London, circa 1752. The substantial fully latched five pillar rack and bell striking movement with plates measuring 8.5 x 7.25 inches, deadbeat escapement and currently of month duration with five-wheel trains, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with dual Julian and Gregorian date of the month apertures and subsidiary seconds dial to the matted centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with fleur-de-lys half hour markers and Arabic five minutes to outer track, the angles applied with fine female mask and scroll cast gilt spandrels beneath arch centred with a silvered boss signed George Lindsay, LONDON flanked by dolphin cast mounts, the case with convex sided upstand incorporating brass foliate engraved sound fret infill to frieze and mahogany ball finials above break-arch cavetto cornice and free-standing large diameter columns flanking the hood door, the trunk with break-arch one-piece mahogany door over plain plinth base with moulded double skirt and squab feet, the interior of the case inscribed in pencil 1752 KV, 241 (95ins) excluding top finial, 251cm (99ins) high overall; with a period copy of Thomas Baskett and the Assigns of Robert Basket An Act to amend an Act made in the last Seffion of Parliament (intituled, An Act for regulating the Commencement of the Year, and for correcting the calendar now in Ufe.) 1752. (2). George Lindsay is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as working in London from circa 1743 until his death in 1776, as well as being a watch and clockmaker Lindsay also produced scientific instruments. In 1743 he published an advertisement for a `Generally Portable` microscope, in another hand written trade pamphlet Lindsay refers to himself as `Watch & Clockmaker to his Royal highness ye Prince of Wales at ye Dial near Catherine Street in ye Strand`. He was later appointed watchmaker to George III, a position he held until his death in 1776. The movement of the current lot with its distinctive substantial bulbous knopped pillars, teardrop shaped pivot cocks for the under dial work and other more subtle details such as the elongated collet for the escape wheel and the suspension cheeks being screwed to the lower edge of the backcock nib, indicates that it originated from the workshop of George Graham. The overall arrangement of the strikework and the impressive nature of the snail/hour wheel assembly is typical of Graham`s work and can be directly compared with numerous examples of his work such as number 777 sold Christie`s King Street, June 1994 (lot 483). The presence of a deadbeat escapement and larger than normal plates is noteworthy suggesting that the current lot may have been devised with further refinements in mind. Originally the movement was made to run for eight-days only and was fitted with bolt and shutter maintaining power (dial has vacant slot at 3 o`clock for the shutter lever and movement has related vacant holes in the plates) however the duration has been increased with by inserting another wheel into each train and reversing the winding pulleys. The bolt-and-shutter maintaining power was removed at this time as it is would be no longer required in a long duration movement. These improvements were probably done early in the clock`s life perhaps even by Lindsay himself however there is no immediate evidence to confirm this. The provision of two date apertures (to give the date of the month according to both the Julian and Gregorian calendars) to the centre of the dial indicates that the current lot was made at the time when the `new` calendar was adopted by Act of Parliament in 1752. By this time the Julian calendar had become inaccurate (due to the error in the estimation of the length of the day) causing difficulties in respect to the synchronisation of the vernal equinox and subsequent calculation of Easter. In order to correct the error twelve days were added to the British calendar at midnight on September 2nd 1752 and the rules for calculating leap years were altered. The Roman Catholic Church had adopted the new calendar in 1582 with most of Continental Europe (under Catholic rule) following shortly afterwards, Great Britain was the last major Western European state to implement the new calendar.

A fine George I green japanned eight-day longcase clock with lunar calendar. Edward Cockey, Warminster, circa 1720. The five finned pillar movement rack striking the hours on a bell mounted vertically above the plates, the frontplate with extension to carry the motion work for the lunar calendar, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with calendar aperture and subsidiary seconds dial to the basket of flowers and foliate scroll engraved and chased matted centre within applied Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised fleur-de-lys half hour markers, Arabic five minutes to outer track and signed ED. COCKEY, WARMINSTER to lower edge, the angles applied with fine urn-centred scroll cast gilt spandrels beneath arch with a central rotating foliate engraved disc with circular aperture to reveal a lunar disc representation of the age of the moon and blued steel pointer for the fixed silvered outer scale calibrated for the lunar month and flanked by dolphin and foliate cast gilt mounts, the case with wide break-arch pediment fronted by a deep foliate scroll pierced blind fret frieze above three-quarter columns attached to the gilt foliate spray decorated hood door, the trunk with rectangular door decorated in raised polychrome and gilt with pagodas and figures within an oriental landscape bordered by further gilt foliate scroll borders, the conforming plinth base adorned with Ho-Ho birds and foliage to front and with moulded double skirt, 229cm (90ins) high. Provenance: The property of a private collector. Born in 1669, Edward Cockey senior was the son of Lewis Cockey (a bellfounder and clockmaker working in Warminster) from whom it is believed that he subsequently learned the trade. Edward was clearly a talented and well-connected clockmaker who in 1707 made an extremely complicated astronomical clock for lord Weymouth for the Great Hall at Longleat. Weymouth is thought to have subsequently commissioned Cockey to make another example as a gift to Queen Anne for her drawing room at St. James`s Palace (now in the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich). Edward Cockey junior was born in 1701 and, although initially thought to have followed in his father`s footsteps, apparently chose to become a wine merchant instead. There is a record of the death of an Edward Cockey clockmaker in 1768 (which probably relates to Edward junior). The dial of the current lot, with decorated centre and lunar calendar to arch, coupled with the finely proportioned case (which has survived with the original finish intact) exhibits Edward Cockey`s individual and innovative approach to both function and aesthetic quality.

A walnut and floral marquetry eight-day longcase clock. Christopher Gould, London, late 17th century and later.

Christopher Gould is generally regarded as one of the leading makers from the `Golden Period` of English clockmaking. He was made Free of the Clockmakers` Company in 1682 but by 1713 had become destitute and received charity from the Company until his death in 1718. His work tends to exhibit a distinctive character borne out of his particular attention to detail and design.
