A rare George II walnut large bracket clock Windmills & Wightman, London, circa 1735 The five-pillar twin fusee rack and bell striking movement with verge escapement, rise/fall regulation and Hoho bird inhabited foliate engraved backplate signed Windmills & Wightman, LONDON within a circular cartouche to centre, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with false bob and calendar apertures and arched signature plaque to the matted centre, within an applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes and fleur de lys half hour markers, with female mask and scroll cast spandrel applied angles beneath rise/fall regulation dial between dolphin cast mounts to arch, the case with later inverted bell top and foliate pierced frets above husk and scroll carved canted angles with conforming frets and brass handles to sides, on cavetto moulded base with shaped apron, 74cm high. The exact date on which William Wightman joined the celebrated Windmills firm is uncertain however Ordnance Office bills record the partnership in September 1735 (see Neale, J.A. Joseph and Thomas Windmills, Clock and Watch Makers 1671-1737, p.233). Five longcase clocks are recorded by Neale but no bracket, lantern clocks or watches are noted. The reason why this unusually large clock was made is uncertain however another ebonised example (a timepiece with silent pull repeat signed Windmills) is described by Neale and a walnut clock of similar proportions but with a rectangular dial by George Graham was formerly in the Iden collection. It is probable that such clocks were utilised in a semi-public context where the use of a longcase clock would be problematic.

A George III provincial mahogany bracket timepiece with pull quarter repeat John Ratcliffe, Chester, circa 1780 The four-pillar single fusee movement with tic-tac escapement and silent pull quarter repeat on two bells for the quarters and a larger bell for the hour, the backplate signed John Ratcliffe CHESTER within a foliate scroll cartouche, the 7.25 inch square brass dial with calendar aperture, false winding square and repeat signature to the foliate engraved silvered centre within an applied Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes and mask and scroll spandrel applied angles, the inverted bell top case with brass carrying handle and rectangular side windows on moulded base with ogee bracket feet, 41cm high excluding handle. John Ratcliffe is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as working in Chester 1763-97. The form of repeat mechanism employed in this clock is derived from a design by Joseph Knibb however utilises a stepped cam rather than a rack to count the hours. A longcase clock by Joseph Smith of Chester with almost identical repeat work was sold in our Apsley Road Saleroom, Bristol, Lot 271 Tuesday 1st March 2005. The close similarities of these two clocks suggests that John Ratcliffe and Joseph Smith may have had some form of working relationship.

William Scafe, a Yorkshireman by birth, was trained as a blacksmith by his father before moving to London and made free of the Clockmakers Company in 1721, he was master in 1749 and is thought to have died in 1764. This clock typifies his highly individualistic style and attention to detail.
Lot 1
A fine George III gilt brass mounted mahogany musical bracket clock George Suggate, Halesworth, circa 1775 The substantial six-pillar triple fusee movement with verge escapement and playing a choice of four tunes on eight bells with thirteen hammers on the hour or at will and striking the hour on a further bell, with foliate scroll engraved backplate and 8 inch brass break-arch dial with calendar aperture to the matted centre within an applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes and foliate scroll cast spandrels to angles, the arch with chime/not chime and strike/not strike subsidiary dials with foliate scroll engraved centres flanking shaped recessed silvered nameplate SUGGATE, HALESWORTH beneath arched tune selection scale with moveable pointer to upper edge, the figured mahogany bell-top case with five leaf and berry cast finials above hinged handles and foliate scroll cast rectangular frets to sides, female caryatid applied angles and on moulded base with leafy scroll and cartouche cast mount to the pierced apron, on foliate cast bracket feet, 61cm high overall. George Suggate is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as working in Halesworth, Suffolk 1767 - early 19th century. The four lively tunes played by this clock are A Dutch Dance, Britton's Strike Home, 104 Psalm and Lady Coventry's Minuet, all these tunes, with the possible exception of A Dutch Dance, were very popular and regularly feature on musical clocks of this date. The complexity of the movement and the quality of the case indicate that this would have been a very expensive clock thus was probably made to order for a wealthy local landowner.
