Admiralty pattern, most pieces engraved with a crest, comprising:6 table-spoons15 table-forks8 dessert-spoons12 dessert-forks8 teaspoons3 sauce-ladles111oz 14dwt, 3,475grProvenance:by family tradition acquired, either as a gift or a purchase, from the Royal Navy by Rear-Admiral Hugh Webb Faulkner (1900-1969) and by descent.The crest, 'upon a pheon a plover close, holding in the beak an ear of wheat', is that of Allsopp, as borne by the Barons Hindlip. Henry Allsop (1811-1887) was created Baronet in 1880 and 1st Baron Hindlip in 1886 so the absence of an engraved coronet on the present service doesn't rule out the crest engraved on the present service belonging to them. The family however doesn't have any obvious naval connections so it is equally possible the crest has been assumed by another family in this instance.The rare pattern, depicting a fouled anchor below the Royal crown and within scrolls, was first made for use of Royal Naval officers in the early 19th century, with the earliest known extant pieces being hallmarked for 1838. As the present service shows it was produced by various makers through the 19th century, apparently being discontinued around the First World War. Ian Pickford notes that serving officers at the time were allowed to purchase services, though pieces are still in use in Royal Navy messes (I. Pickford, Silver Flatware English, Irish and Scottish 1660-1980, Woodbridge, 1995, p.98.Each piece is fully hallmarked on back on handle and further marked with the broad arrow mark. The marks in generally are clear. There is some surface scratching and wear, consistent with age and use. The wear is noticeable as a softening to the high points but in general most pieces are still reasonably crisp. There is some minor bruising and wear to the tines of some forks. The pieces are marked as below:6 table-spoons, four engraved with a crest, four by John Samuel Hunt, 1860, two by Francis Higgins, 187615 table-forks, each engraved with a crest, one by William Theobalds, 1840; three by George Adams, 1841, 1851 and 1852; five by John Saumel Hunt, three 1860 and two 1862; one by Hunt and Roskell, 1866 and five by John Edward Bingham, 18778 dessert-spoons, six engraved with a crest; three by John Samuel Hunt, two 1859 and one 1862; two by Francis Higgins, 1876 and three by John Edward Bingham, 187712 dessert-forks, two engraved with a crest; two by George Adams, 1853; four by John Samuel Hunt, 1864; two by Francis Higgins, 1876 and four by John Edward Bingham, 18778 teaspoons, two engraved with a crest; four by John Samuel Hunt, 1862; two by George Adams, 1876 and by John Edward Bingham, 18773 sauce-ladles, each engraved with a crest; one by William Theobalds and two by John Samuel Hunt, 1858

A rare mid-19th century mother-of-pearl-inlaid rosewood dial timepiece with revolving world time indicationJames Cooke, BirminghamThe octagonal case with inlaid border backed by a deep box with curved top and bottom apertures (the doors now absent), with a wall hook at both poles. The 12-inch dial with hinged cast brass bezel, solid, painted dial plate with Arabic minute ring and 43 different world locations featuring a prominent arrow pointer and Greenwich Mean Time below 60; the rotating painted Roman hour dial with I-XII repeated twice around the circumference, one XII being labelled beneath as Midday and the other as Midnight with the centre of the dial carrying two antique globes; Europe, Asia, Africa, and part of Oceania on the left and New Zealand and the Americas on the right below a steel minute hand, both plates being marked REGISTERED DECR2ND 1856 3910. The gut (now synthetic) fusee movement consisting of four knopped and bevelled pillars with an anchor escapement. Ticking, but crutch broken. Together with the pendulum. 42.5cms (16.5ins) high.Footnotes:The writing on the dial 'Registered Decr 2nd 1856 3910' is in reference to a Useful Registered Design application (intellectual property copyright) taken out by James Cooke of Birmingham on 2 December of 1856. The category for the registered design is listed as 'Clock or fingerpiece dial plates'.A dialmaker named James Cooke is listed as working in Birmingham from 1858-1880. Further, a dial making company was established named 'James Cooke and Son' in Birmingham in 1878, the proprietor having been in partnership with Edwin Howell since 1840 as 'Howell and Cooke'. James Cooke and Son would go on to make a new dial for the Shepherd clock at the Royal Observatory after the previous one suffered a bomb strike in October 1940. The new dial was installed in April/May 1947. James Cooke and Son was voluntarily wound up in 1980. Further information can be found on pages 84-90 of the March 2015 issue of the Antiquarian Horological Society Journal. An advert in the November 1953 Horological Journal for James Cooke and Son proclaims that they have been trading since 1840. Interestingly, the hemispheres which form part of the dial seem to be painted versions of James Wilson's dial transfer hemisphere maps, which were used on 13' painted longcase dials for moon phase apertures (see The Longcase Clock Reference Book by John Robey pg. 602) around 1793/5. James Wilson was a Birmingham dial maker who traded from 1777 until his death in 1809. Another dial maker took over his premises but closed the business permanently in 1811/12. As the transfers James Wilson used on his longcase dials are the same size as those on this clock, it does not seem unreasonable to suggest that 28 years after closing, a partnership of dial makers used some old stock transfer plates to print the hemispheres for their copyrighted world time dial.With grateful thanks to Tony Corsini of the British Library who was instrumental in tracing the Registered design mark to James Cooke & Sons.See Bateman, D. (2015) 'The replacement of the war-damaged Shepherd dial at Greenwich by James Cooke & Son of Birmingham', Antiquarian Horology, Volume 36(1), pgs. 84-90 (Accessed 23 March 2022) and Birch, E.

His work can be found in the Victoria and Albert Museum and a longcase clock was in the Wetherfield Collection. After 1699 he worked with the widow of Francis Stamper, meaning he was also a Quaker. He was obviously a maker of some repute and was well connected within the horological trade. A table clock by him was sold in these rooms the 8 June 2004.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Lot 110
A rare late 19th century French neo-Gothic oak table clock with calendarMathieu Planchon, Palais Royal, Paris, movement numbered 2883Surmounted by a crowing cockerel over a scroll frame housing the large bell and horizontal hammer, (with static Jack to one side), enclosed by cruciform brass strips 'rivetted' onto the carcass and twin side doors with bullseye glass and creature handles, the rear door with quatrefoil sound fret, raised on bifurcated scroll feet. The dial is divided with another 'rivetted' brass strip; above, the signed Roman chapter ring with sun centre and beetle and poker hands, the stylised Arabic calendar ring with arrow hand and clouded sun centre.

The rear door carries a stamp depicting a clock and two pocketwatches within a shield, along with the number 3 595. The pendulum is stamped 2883·772. Ticking and striking, together with a a winding key. 27.5 x 26 x 60.5Footnotes:Mathieu Planchon was born in 1842 in Bourges, and served as apprentice to his father, one of the city's clockmakers, until 1862. By 1865/66, he had moved to Paris and was employed at Robert-Houdin's workshop: Robert-Houdin was a horologist and one of the most famous illusionists of all time; it seems likely that Planchon would have worked with Houdin's son, Emile Robert-Houdin who took over running the workshop after his father's retirement in 1855. After about two years he moved to work with a G. Phillippe in the Palais Royal, before taking over the business around 1870. Planchon had a strong interest in the antiquarian side of horology, and by 1896 was being described in the Horological Journal as 'the un-disputed authority in the horology of all countries, and, above all, on that belonging to the Middle Ages'. The 'Figaro' newspaper ran a competition in 1874, soliciting ideas for a watch it could give to its subscribers. Planchon entered and won with an apparently novel case design ....UNFORTUANTLEY THE DESIGN REMAINS UNKNOWN....; 22,000 of the watches were produced and Planchon became a well-known horological figure. He spent the next 15 years assembling a large collection of ancient timepieces, as well as making replicas of antique and middle ages clocks, but with modern, 19th century movements. He did not seem to regard these clocks as copies, but updates to otherwise fine clocks. By 1889, he had assembled enough to be able to exhibit at the Great Exhibition in Paris; he had a large variety of reproduction antique clocks, 75 in all, including clepsydrae and 15th century mantel clocks. He won a gold medal for this exhibition. In 1895, he relocated from the declining Palais Royal to the crossroads of Rue de la Chaussée d'Antin and the Rue Meyerbeer. He continued with his antiquarian pursuits, making, amongst other pieces, a clock in the shape of a fan, which would open to reveal the hours, before snapping shut at 6 'o' clock, which was based on a similar clock in a 16th century engraving he owned. He also extensively studied, and described, both traditional Japanese and Chinese clocks and time-keeping systems; he was the first European to publish a serious horological analysis of these timepieces. In the 1900 Paris Exhibition, Planchon not only won a Grand Prix, he was also allowed to write the official description for the horology section. This same year, in light of his accomplishments at the 1900 Exhibition, and his comprehensive book on the history of horology, L'horloge son histoire rétrospective, pittoresque et artistique published two years previously, he was made a member of the British Horological Institute. He would continue to practice horology and publish various related monographs, until his death in 1921, a few months after his latest work, La Pendule de Paris. Son évolution décorative was published. Paul Brateau, Planchon's son-in-law, employee for the past 21 years, and similarly enthusiastic antiquarian horologist, assumed control of La Maison Planchon, which he relocated to the Rue Meyerbeer proper in 1930, before his retirement, and the final closure of the shop in 1936. A very similar clock, with moon phase instead of a calendar dial and numbered 5885, was sold by Bonhams London in September 2009.Robertson, J. D.

Charles Delépine continued alone from the mid-1850s before his nephew Ludovic and wife Marie Barrois took on the business as Delépine-Barrois.
