The business was continued in the same name by his sons until 1883Externally the clock appears in excellent overall condition. We are led to believe it was subject to some restoration some years ago and is very bright and clean. There are no obvious cracks or chips to any of the glasses. The gilding is in excellent condition. There are a couple of marks either side in the woodwork near the side glasses which appear to have been inserted at some earlier date but is worthy of note. The doors are in good condition. The hinges appear original and function well. Internally the mechanism is complete although we cannot warrant the originality of all components, it is clean and bright as to be expected after a restoration. The bell, hammers and pendulum appear original. The clock winds, runs and sets but should be regarded as untested. The winding key and door keys are present. Overall a very nice example requiring no obvious expenditure. Prospective bidders are strongly advised to study all images closely prior to bidding.

The bracket does have some marks and discolouration particularly around where it has been attached to a wall but this is acceptable for the age of the clock. The case is glass fronted and the panel removed easily. There is no sign of damage to the clock and when the brake is released the clock functions correctly. It does run and lock but should be regarded as untested. Overall a very good example. Potential bidders are strongly advised to study all images carefully.

The clock was consigned from a deceased estate, we have no further provenance or paperwork.

He was apprenticed to Robt. Scignier in July 1668 and was then passed over to John Fromanteel until November 1677, free of The Clockmakers Company 1677. In 1680 he moved to York to establish one of the first important clock workshops in the North of England and became free of the City of York. He died in 1698. Provenance: Purchased Hotspur Antiques Ltd, 14 Lowndes Street, London SW1X 9DEExternally the clock presents very well indeed, showing wear commensurate with age and moderate usage. There is some light shrinkage here and there on the veneer panels which is to be expected on a clock of this vintage. There is some light cracking on the door, and general chips and marks but no real areas of concern. There is a nice patination. The item has been refurbished at some point but this would be historic. The two lower marquetry panels at the base of the trunk door have been replaced and the plinth base is later - the base has some marks. The marquetry retains good colour. The glasses have some marks but no obvious signs of damage or chips and may be considered original. The doors sits on its original hinges and functions correctly. Likewise the inner cabinet is in good condition. The weights appear original and are strung. The original winding crank is present. To the inside of the door there are various notations and pieces of information as shown in the images, relating to the clock. The hood is in good condition, fits and locks correctly, the locking bracket appears to be original. No obvious sign of restoration but has had attention over the years on a historic basis. The mechanism and the fit is good and again appears to be contemporary with the case. Some slight marks and one or two small wormholes, again historic, to the sides and lower hood plinth. The dial is in very good condition but again at some point would have been re-silvered, but this is historic. The engraving is complete and intact and the hands appear original. The mechanism is complete although we cannot warrant the originality of all components. The clock winds, runs and sets but should be regarded as untested. The hammer and bell appear original. Overall a very nice example of this early clock. Please note we are unable to comment as to whether any additional movement would fit into the cabinet. This needs to be the decision of the prospective bidder. Prospective bidders are strongly advised to view all images closely prior to bidding.

Windmills, London to lower margin, the angles applied with twin cherub and crown spandrels with foliate scroll engraved infill to the plate between, the case decorated with floral and foliate marquetry and with caddy top over glazed hood door with turned columns flanking the aperture, with concave throat moulding and trunk door centred with a lenticle and decorated with three-shaped panels incorporating central bird amid flowers, on conforming plinth base with decorated shallow skirt. 232cm high excluding later finials, 49cm wide, 26.5cm deep Provenance: Acquired August 1919, 'A fine Wm & Mary long case clock with bird & flower marquetry panels'The life and work of Joseph Windmills and his successors is comprehensively documented in Neale, J.A. Joseph and Thomas Windmills Clock and Watch Makers 1671-1737. Joseph joined the Clockmakers' Company as a free Brother on 29th September 1671 - the same year that Joseph Knibb, Daniel Quare and Thomas Tompion also gained their freedom of the Company. He initially worked from Blow Bladder Street in St. Martins le Grand, London before moving to premises at 'Swan Court, Mark Lane End, next Tower Street' by April 1674 where the business remained. Joseph took his son, Thomas, as an apprentice who, after gaining his freedom in 1696, is thought to have immediately gone into business with his father; shortly after 1700 the firm became a partnership which lasted until Joseph's death in 1724. As a contemporary of Knibb, Quare and Tompion, Joseph Windmills would have had to compete with some of the finest clockmakers that have ever lived during a period of heightened scientific enlightenment. In this environment Windmills excelled, producing clocks of a quality that equalled many of his more famous peers. Condition Report: The movement is in working condition however is due for a gentle clean/service as lubrication is somewhat dry/gummy and the plates are a little tarnished with some oil staining. The escape wheel and arbor are 19th century 'service' replacements otherwise movement appears essentially all original with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The centre movement pillar is not fitted with a latch all other latches are present. The dial plate retains old yellow lacquer surface which has mellowed/discoloured; it is a little dirty with a few spots of oxidation, the silvering is fairly heavily oxidised; the calendar ring is operational. The hands are replacements of incorrect design and size (with respect to the hour hand). The spandrels appear original and retain good strong gilding.The movement and dial retain the original seatboard which rests at the correct level within the case with no evidence of alteration confirming that the movement and dial are original to the case. The movement backplate has spare holes from a previous securing bracket which is no longer present - there are corresponding holes to the case backboard. The case has generally survived in original 'untouched' condition, The top board to the caddy superstructure, finials and blocks are 19th century replacements; and the 'box' beneath the caddy would have been faced with scroll-pierced fretwork which has bee substituted for a piece of dark veneer. The cornice frieze would have originally also been faced with fretwork - this has been replaced by a section of marquetry veneer which appears Dutch and most likely 'salvaged' from a piece of furniture. The hood door is in good condition; the hinges are unusual being externally mounted (to the right-hand side) however they appear original. The wooden column caps and bases conform with other known examples by Windmills; the lower right front is loose and also appears to be a later turning that the others. The crossgrain chin moulding to the left-hand side is missing a section around 6 ins in length. The rear of the caddy is open and was most likely originally closed with thick paper pasted over the aperture. The throat moulding has a small veneer chip to the rear left-hand edge and a small loss to the leading upper edge of the marquetry at the front otherwise are in good condition. The trunk door is straight with some slight springing to the edge moulding to top left-hand corner and some small localised losses to the marquetry (corresponding to slight movement in the carcass board clamp) towards the lower edge. The lock and hinges appear original and undisturbed. The sides of the trunk are in good condition - the left-hand side has a small veneer chip to the rear edge and evidence of some light historic worm infestation (long gone!). The right-hand side has some 'rubbing through' of the crossbanded veneer towards the front leading edge at the level of the lower door hinge. The plinth base is original and undisturbed retaining marquetry veneers in good original condition having only slight losses to the upper left-hand edge and towards the centre. The side veneers have horizontal shrinkage cracking (but are stable) and some historic worm damage. Unusually the clock retains its original skirting faced in marquetry. The design of the marquetry suggests that the skirt may have originally been taller, there are also veneer losses to the sides and some historic worm damage. Faults to the case are otherwise limited to minor bumps, scuffs, bruises and wear commensurate with age and use. The surface/colour is particularly good and untouched with the marquetry having raised 'glue' texture around the various elements indicating that the finish is old. The backboard retains all of its origiginal height continuing all the way to the lower edge of the base.Clock is complete with pendulum, original brass-cased weights, door key and a winder.

It will run and strike however the strike is slow/lazy indication that a gentle clean/service is required. The dial has overall flaking/losses to the finish as well as evidence of historic retouching/overpainting. The case is generally in very good original condition with faults limited to a small veneer repair (section of original veneer re-stuck) to the arch of the left hand side fret surround otherwise there are only a few minor bumps, scuffs and some light shrinkage cracking.Clock is complete with pendulum, case key and a winder.
