Lot 189

Y A George I brass mounted ebony table clock with pull-quarter repeat on six bells Robert Markham, London, circa 1720 The five 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 narcissus blooms around an unusual central figure depicting a Classical warrior waving a union flag pennant over cartouche reserve signed Robert Markham, LONDON, the 8 inch brass break-arch dial with false bob and calendar apertures to the matted centre within applied Roman numeral chapter ring with diamond lozenge half hour markers and Arabic five minutes to outer track, with pierced steel hands and angles applied with female bust and scroll cast spandrels beneath arch centred with herringbone-bordered silvered boss signed Robert Markham, LONDON over switch labelled Silent/Strike and flanked by foliate strapwork cast mounts, the brass mounted ebony veneered inverted bell-top case with hinged carrying handle to the superstructure, brass urn finials and cavetto top mouldings over brass fillet inset glazed dial aperture and conforming foliate scroll upper quadrant frets to front door, the sides with D-ended lozenge over brass fillet-bordered break-arch scroll-pierced sound frets the rear with square brass fillet bordered window beneath arched fret and upper quadrants to a rectangular door set within the frame of the case, on cavetto moulded skirt base, 50cm (19.75ins) high excluding handle.   The maker of the current lot was the son of a clockmaker also named Robert Markham. Brian Loomes records (on his website) that Robert Markham senior was born in Buckinghamshire the son of Richard Markham and was a member of the Curriers' Company in London from 1666 and died in 1715 leaving everything to his wife and only son, Robert junior. His bequests included plate and jewels but also any moneys owing from the government or any 'body politick', which implies he had trade with government departments. Robert junior was probably born about 1680 and was made free of the Curriers in 1700 after having served an apprenticeship. He married Catherine Markwick, the daughter of the clockmaker James Markwick senior, before entering into partnership with his brother-in-law also called James. On the death Robert in 1741 bequests were made to his wife, his only son, James, and two unmarried daughters Elizabeth and Anne. These included household goods, 'plate and jewells', but also considerable stocks in Old South Sea Annuities and Million Bank stock. The business appears to have continued under the name 'Markwick Markham' entering into subsequent often short-lived partnerships with makers such as Francis Perigal and Henry Borrell producing timepieces mainly for Export.   The current clock is unusual in that it is signed for Markham alone rather than in partnership with Markwick. Details such as the strike/silent switch above the XII numeral, sophisticated engraving to the backplate and design of the case mirrors those seen on contemporary clocks signed by Markwick alone (including a green japanned example in the Victoria and Albert Museum) which confirms that they originate from the same workshop. Condition Report: Movement appears to be in fine original condition with the only noticeable replacement being the backcock which has been replaced to facilitate silk suspension for the pendulum (rather than the pendulum being directly fixed to the pallet arbor). There is no evidence to suggest that the movement was ever converted to anchor escapement -this is further supported by the positioning of one of the movement pillars which would not allow room for an anchor escapement. The movement is running and striking however is a little dirty/neglected hence a clean and overhaul is advised. UPDATE -11/06/2020 -the hour bell is a replacement; the larger two of the quarter bells have been repaired but sound good, all quarter bells appear original. The dial has some tarnishing/discolouration to the finishes and is a little dirty otherwise is in fine original condition. The movement retains its original seatboard which has holes for bolts to secure the mechanism to case via treaded holes in the lower two movement pillars, the bolts are no longer present but all holes line-up properly. The base also has a hole for an alternative route for the repeat line and two others (at the rear left and front corner) -the purpose of these last two is not obvious but the most likely explanation is that were used to locate the clock on a wall bracket at some point (they are definitely not indicative of another movement and dial being fitted to the case at some point). From this evidence we are very confident that the movement and dial are original to the case. The case is generally in fine original condition with noticeable faults limited to some chipping to the veneer overlap of the dial mask (not visible when front door is closed) and a small veneer chip to the front door veneers at the left hand shoulder of the arch. The finials are 20th century replacements and the frets are probably restorations. The veneers have a few historic patch repairs and exhibit light shrinkage and wear in places; the finish would benefit from a polish to 'revive' the surface. Clock has winder but no case key.   Condition Report Disclaimer

Lot 120

A 19th Century mahogany bracket clock for the Turkish market, the eight day movement by Gravell & Son of London No'd 4009 with typical Turkish engraved chapter ring surmounted by a strike silent movement and dial, the case with brass embellishments raised on four acanthus scroll feet Size approx 67cm high x 44cm wide CONDITION REPORTS In answer to specific queries, the case and movement do not appear to be a marriage, though it is clear that some restoration and replacements have taken place over the clock's life. The wooden mount for the finial appears to be ill fitting and the castings either side appear to be of a lower quality than in some areas. The casting to the spandrels and feet and pilasters is better quality. The inner silvered dial within the chapter ring is engraved "Gravell & Son London 4009", the chapter ring with the typical Turkish market markings. The strike silent dial above it appears slightly worn and dirty. There is a circular scratch mark outside of the dial. The back plate is undecorated but bears inscription "Gravell & Son London 4009". There does not appear to be any other engraving elsewhere. The piece is a twin fusee movement with anchor escapement. It does not appear to have been converted from a verge. The rear of the face bears a sticker of a restorer/clockmaker "Dan Acraman Horological Services". The rear of the dial bears the same sticker dated Jan 1989 by hand. The fabric to the interior of the sides appears to be replacement. As you will see from photographs, some of the interior footboard and other woodwork appears very fresh suggesting that it may have been replaced in 1989. The case is generally sound though with some areas of veneers with some damage and replacement sections. See images for further detail. There are signs of old woodworm to the rear above the foot and also to the base board. See images for further detail. 66 cm high x 41.5 cm wide foot to foot and 24.5 cm deep foot to foot
