Fermanagh in 1748, illustrated in The Knight of Glin and Peill, James IRISH FURNITURE, page 256.

Lot 157

A fine and rare first period brass lantern clock, unsigned, circa 1635. The short-duration posted countwheel bell- striking movement formerly with verge and balance-wheel escapement now with verge and external short bob pendulum (swinging to the left hand side of the clock), with external alarm to the iron backplate, the dial with alarm disc within winged angel mask and alternating thistle-and-flower foliate trail engraved centre with original iron arrowhead hand and applied narrow Roman numeral chapter ring with asterisk half hour markers, the corners decorated with leafy-spray infill, the frame with heraldic frets and cup-and-cover turned finials beneath domed bell bearer and conforming finial, with later pointed-arch glazed brass side doors, on inverted acorn feet, 42cm high, with a carved oak wall bracket. This rare early London-style clock can be stylistically dated to the 1630s and loosely compared to examples by makers such as Peter Closon, William Sellwood and Francis Foreman. However the winged angel mask engraved motif to the dial centre is reminiscent of clocks from a slightly earlier period (see Loomes, Brian Lantern Clocks & Their Makers pages 50-51). The thistle decoration is also unusual and suggests a tantalising possibility that the clock could have Scottish origins, indeed the frame castings and general design are related to the work of Humphrey Mills of Edinburgh (op. cit. pages 331-333). However as it appears that Mills never incorporated alarms into his clocks, the current lot is unlikely to have come from his workshop. The conversion from balance to short pendulum regulation was done early in the clock's life and in such a way as to enable the retention of the alarm mechanism which was often removed during such conversions (to allow for the pendulum to be placed at the rear of the clock). The above description should be read in conjunction with IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS printed in the sale catalogue. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports.

Lot 161

The above description should be read in conjunction with IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS printed in the sale catalogue. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports.

Lot 174

A fine and rare Queen Anne ebonised bracket timepiece with pull quarter repeat and alarm, Christopher Gould, London, circa 1710. The five finned pillar single fusee movement with verge escapement, silent pull repeat on two bells and alarm, the foliate engraved backplate with external blued steel and brass ratchet-and-clicks for the spring barrel and signed CHR GOULD LONDINI Fecit within an elaborate shaped cartouche surmounted by an eagle, the 7 inch square brass dial with ringed winding hole, silvered alarm disc, fine pierced blued steel hands and herringbone-bordered false bob aperture further signed Chr. Gould, London to the matted centre, within an applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised sword hilt half hour markers and Arabic five minutes, the angles with winged cherub head spandrels with foliate scroll engraved decorative infill between, the case with foliate cast handle to the inverted bell top with brass vase finials above fine foliate scroll pierced and chased gilt brass repousse overlaid rectangular side windows, on moulded base with brass disc feet, 36cm high excluding handle. Christopher Gould is generally regarded as one of the leading makers from the 'Golden Period' of English clockmaking. He was made Free of the Clockmakers' Company in 1682 but by 1713 had become destitute and received charity from the Company until his death in 1718. Christopher Gould's work invariably demonstrates a level of quality and elaboration that could only be afforded by the most wealthy of patrons. The current lot is no exception as the specification, with combination of silent pull quarter repeat and alarm, indicates that it was designed for bedroom use, suggesting that it was originally supplied to a very wealthy individual who was able to afford a clock reserved exclusively for the bed chamber. Provenance: Acquired by Alfred Loader (Greiner) circa 1910, thence by descent. (Full provenance available in the printed catalogue).
