A GREEN PAINTED AND GILT METAL MOUNTED BRACKET CLOCK IN LOUIS XV STYLE 19TH CENTURY, POSSIBLY SWISS The movement striking on two concentric bells, stamped 1324K, the case after the manner of Andre-Charles Boulle, with putto finial and of typical waisted form and atop a conforming bracket 128cm highProvenance: The Hon. Claude John Yorke, and thence by descent Condition Report: Movement is not original to the dial. It is typically Swiss and quarter strikes on two bell together with pull-quarter repeat work. The movement is in neglected condition hence is not running; the going and strike trains appear serviceable however the repeat work probably requires more involved attention and is lacking its bells and hammers. The dial has a spare winding hole (left over from the original movement) as well as numerous hairline cracks and chips/losses. The case was originally 'contra-parti' veneered with shell within a brass ground - the brass has been removed and the surface painted green around the relief scroll design brown tortoiseshell. The case is otherwise structurally sound but with age related shrinkage and wear; the mounts have lost most of their gilding and the cherub surmount is missing something from his right hand. The bracket is in very similar condition except that the mounts retain more of their original gilding/finish. Clock has pendulum and a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

CHRISTOPHER DRESSER (1834-1904) RARE AESTHETIC MOVEMENT DRAWING ROOM CABINET, CIRCA 1875 ebonised wood, with glazed doors, traces of two original paper maker's labels for William Booty, London, two original keys 155.5cm wide, 214cm high, 46cm deep Literature: The Fine Art Society, Truth Beauty Power: The Designs of Christopher Dresser: The John Scott Collection, Exhibition Catalogue 2014, nos. 136 and 137 where cabinets by Booty with corresponding design elements are illustrated.Lyons H. Christopher Dresser: The People's Designer, 1834-1904, ACC, 2004, pl.142, pl.256, were a cabinet of similar form illustrated.Whiteway, M. Christopher Dresser 1834-1904, Skira 2001, p. 161, pl. 193Note: Little is known about the working relationship between Christopher Dresser and the Notting Hill-based furniture maker William Booty. Booty’s workshops were 400 yards from Dresser’s home so it would have been convenient for Dresser to inspect the progress of his commissions. Several pieces of furniture were made by Booty for Dresser's great domestic scheme, Bushloe House in Wigston Magna, Leicestershire, and he was also a supplier to the short-lived Art Furnisher’s Alliance (1880-1883). Only a handful of similar examples to the cabinet offered here are known: two formerly in the collection of John Scott and two slightly larger cabinets, one in the collection of the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh and another formerly with Oscar Graf, Paris. The current example bears many characteristics of these cabinets including the arrangement of the doors with their Mashrabiya turnings, the scrolled finials and characteristic turned and blocked legs with arched bracket details in various configurations. Two wings added to each side extend the cabinet beyond the rectangular outline of the other cabinets. This example also differs from the others in its plain unadorned surface, in keeping with other examples found at Bushloe House and furniture retailed by the Art Furnishers Alliance. Each adhere to Dresser’s design principles with regards to furniture: utility, strength, simple lines and restrained ornamentation.
