During this period of silence the distillery was acquired by Arthur Bell & Sons who reopened it in 1949. Today it still provides the heart of the Bell’s blend.

A GEORGE II MAHOGANY BUREAU BOOKCASE BY JOHN FRANKLIN, CIRCA 1750 The top possibly associated, the fall opening to an arrangement of pigeon holes and drawers around a central cupboard door, the printed label titled 'John Franklin, Cabinet Maker and Upholsterer, the Sign of the Chair in Bell Court, Doctor's Common, London, Makes and Sells all Sorts of Chairs, Cabinets...'. 205cm high, 95cm wide, 52cm deepA John Franklin is listed in 1803 as a subscriber to Thomas Sheraton's "Cabinet Dictionary", Dictionary of English Furniture Makers, 1660-1840, ed. by G. Beard and C. Gilbert, 1986, Leeds, p. 319. Considering the dates however, it is unlikely that this is actually the same individual responsible for the offered lot, which is dated circa 1750. It seems more likely that the John Franklin who made the present bureau bookcase is the one documented as working in the capacity of a 'turner' in 1730, in Upton, Buckinghamshire. It is then certainly conceivable that the latter moved to London after an initial period as a 'turner' to become a cabinet maker.(bifmo.history.ac.uk) Condition Report: Bookcase with the marks, knocks, scratches and abrasions commensurate with age and use. Old chips and splits. Please note, it is likely that the two sections of the bookcase (upper glazed section and the lower bureau section) are associated to each other. The top of the bureau section is finished and there are also difference between the construction of the backboards. The putty to the inside of the glazed doors varies to some panes suggesting these are old replacements. All glass has good age and 'wave'. Interior of the fall front is well used. It has various dents, abrasions, and dark marks - see images. Small sections of inset timber around one of the fall hinges. Escutcheons and handles to lopers are old replacements. The locks and the handles to the drawers appear to be possibly original. There are keys present and operate all locks. Some of the locks are 'sticky'. Later blocks to the backs of the feet. One rear foot with repairs - see images. Some old moulding repairs. Some splits to bottoms of drawers. Minor evidence of old worm. Please refer to additional images for visual reference to condition.Condition Report Disclaimer

A LOUIS XVI ORMOLU MANTEL CLOCK, AFTER A DESIGN BY FRANCOIS VION LATE 18TH CENTURY The case with flambeau urn surmount above laurel draped cylindrical case, supported by an Italian style lion with star decorated ball, ribbon tied laurel draped profile medallion of Louis XVI to the plinth The 6" enamelled dial with Roman numerals and Arabic chapter rings, supporting an unsigned French 8 day movement, striking on a bell, outer countwheel strike, with pendulum and key 64cm high overall, 37cm wide For a closely comparable Louis XVI clock, see Christie's, London, The Collection of the Marquis and Marquise De Ravanel, 22nd Nov 2007, Lot 129, (£36,500). Another version of this model of clock can be seen in J. Augarde, Les Ouvriers du Temps: La Pendule à Paris de Louis XVI à Napoleon Premier, Geneva, 1996, p. 54, fig. 36. A sketch for a related clock, by François Vion, is in the Bibliothèque Doucet, Paris (H. Ottomeyer & P. Pröschel et al., Vergoldete Bronzen, Munich, 1986, fig. 3.11.6). Condition Report: Movement is in clean condition, the going train is in running however the strike train is currently not working most likely due to a pinion (pivoted via a cock behind the countwheel) becoming mis-aligned and jamming. This should be a relatively straightforward repair for a suitably qualified clockmaker. The pendulum has later Brocot regulation to the suspension (was most likely previously silk suspension) hence the backcock is probably a replacement. The dial has a small edge cracks at II and IX, and slight enamel chips adjacent to the edge screws at XI, III and VII; there is also a small enamel chip to the right hand winding hole, hands appear undamaged but may be 19th century replacements.The case is in fine original condition with fine thick original gilding. The surface has overall noticeable darkening through build-up of dirt as well as some tarnishing of the bronze coming through. There is some edge wear and the rear of the base has thinner gilding which has discoloured more noticeably than the front and sides. There is a small casting 'blow-through' to the movement drum support at the rear and the the platform supporting the urn surmount has a slight casting depression towards the front right hand corner.As catalogued clock has winding key and a 19th century pendulum.Condition Report Disclaimer
