A Queen Anne green japanned table clock with pull-quarter repeat on six bells Markwick, London, circa 1710 The six finned pillar twin fusee bell striking movement with verge escapement regulated by short bob pendulum and pull-quarter repeat on a nest of six graduated bells, the backplate engraved with symmetrical foliate scrolls incorporating eagle head motifs around a central basket of flowers to upper margin, the 7 inch brass break-arch dial with false bob and calendar apertures to the matted centre within applied Roman numeral chapter ring with fleur-de-lys half hour markers, Arabic five minutes to outer track and signed Markwick, London to lower edge, with delicate pierced steel hands and angles applied with Indian mask and scroll cast spandrels beneath herringbone bordered arch centred with blued steel disc to the subsidiary Strike/Silent selection dial flanked by mounts cast as putti with flaming torches riding foliate scrolls, the green japanned case with generous cast hinged brass handle to the bell-top superstructure decorated in raised polychrome and gilt with robed figures at a table within oriental garden landscape, the front door with conforming standing figures to stiles within stylised gilt foliate infill, the sides with rectangular windows beneath lozenge-shaped apertures within further raised foliate and oriental motif borders, the rear door with rectangular glazed aperture, on complex moulded base with simple squab feet (with touching-in/repairs to the original decoration) 43cm (17ins) high excluding handle. James Markwick senior is recorded in Loomes, Brian Clockmakers of Britain 1286-1700 as apprenticed in 1756 to Edmund Gilpin (through Richard Taylor); he initially worked at Croydon before returning to London where he gained his freedom of the Clockmakers' Company in 1666. In 1673 he took-over the former business of Samuel Betts at behind the Royal Exchange. Markwick had a turbulent relationship with the Clockmakers' Company - in 1676 he was fined for abuse of the Master at the Steward's feast and was often reprimanded for not attending court. James Markwick junior was born in Croydon in 1662 and was apprenticed to his father gaining his freedom (by patrimony) in 1692. He initially went into partnership with his father before gaining outright control of the business on the latter's retirement to Pevensey in Sussex in around 1700 (where he subsequently died in 1716). In around 1710-15 James Markwick junior went into partnership with Robert Markham which lasted until the former's death in 1730. The business was subsequently continued by Markham and his successors and specialised in producing clocks and watches for export to the Middle East. The current lot was probably made by James Markwick junior after his father had retired to Pevensey in Sussex but prior to going into partnership with Robert Markham; this would date the clock to around 1710. The mounts applied to the arch of the dial are of a design used by other leading makers such as Daniel Delander on some of their early break-arch dialled table clocks. A related green japanned table clock residing in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London is illustrated by Robert Donaldson in his article EARLY ENGLISH JAPANNED TABLE CLOCKS published in ANTIQUARIAN HOROLOGY vol. XXXII, no. 2, page 219 (fig. 18).
