A fine lacquered brass ‘Concorde’ skeleton timepiece with Harrison’s grasshopper escapement. Fred Whitlock for Dent, London, 1970’s. The substantial five-pillar A-shaped pierced plates with compound ‘dumb bell’ pendulum, grasshopper escapement and large escapewheel with Harrison type 20 second spring rementoire driven from a weight with Huygens style endless chain self-wound via an electric winder every seven minutes, the front applied with pierced brass and black-button applied abstract chapter ring, 66cm high, on rectangular mahogany base with glass cover, 75cm high overall. Provenance: Acquired directly from the maker by a family member of the vendor.. This skeleton timepiece was conceived and constructed by Fred Whitlock for retail by Dent and is based on a design by Martin Burgess. Approximately 25 examples were constructed during the 1970’s with a further batch of around 10 produced from unused parts discovered in around 2000. The grasshopper escapement was developed by John Harrison in the early 1720’s, first used in his precision longcases and turret clocks it was later employed in his marine timekeepers H1-3. The spring rementoire (a device enabling power to be isolated and delivered to the escapewheel alone thus alleviating error caused by varying friction in the wheel train) was developed by Harrison in the 1730’s whilst refining the design of H2. In essence this clock serves to demonstrate the escapement action and rementoire design employed in Harrison’s marine timekeeper H2.
Lot 104
A fine Queen Anne ebonised eight-day longcase clock. John Knibb, Oxford, early 18th century. The fully-latched five finned-pillar inside countwheel bell-striking movement with separate shaped-cock for the pallet arbor and backplate cut for the pallets, long crutch and 11.75 inch square gilt brass dial with delicate border engraved calendar aperture, silvered subsidiary seconds ring and blued-steel hands to the finely matted centre within an applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised fleur-de-lys half hour markers, Arabic five minutes and signed John Knibb, Oxon to lower edge, the angles applied with gilt twin cherub and crown pattern spandrels, the case with Knibb type button-capped giltwood centre finial flanked by conforming brass examples to the domed caddy upstand with blind fret infill beneath, with moulded cornice with conforming fret to frieze and integral columns with gilt brass caps and bases to hood door, the trunk with concave throat moulding and lenticle-centred rectangular door, on plinth base with moulded skirt, 229cm high excluding top finial, 241cm overall. Provenance: The property of a private collector. John Knibb was born in 1650 and was apprenticed to his older brother, Joseph, in around 1664. When Joseph moved to London in 1670 to set up business (presumably in the workshop inherited from his uncle, Samuel) John, his younger brother, took-on the Oxford workshop gaining the Freedom of the city on payment of a fine in 1673. Throughout the latter three decades of the 17th century John and Joseph worked in parallel, however when the products from both workshops are examined, it is evident that they had a close working relationship. Joseph Knibb retired in 1697 selling-up most of his workshop before moving to Hanslop, Buckinghamshire where he made a few clocks prior to his death in 1711. John Knibb continued in business until his death in 1722. The movement of the current lot is fully latched and has the feature of separate cock for the pallet arbor (and cut-out for the pallets in the backplate) normally found on earlier clocks by Joseph with butterfly-nut pendulum regulation, however the casting for the pendulum hanging cock differs from those found on earlier clocks and the use of internal countwheel for striking the hours certainly dates it towards the end of the century. From these observations one could speculate that the movement of the current lot may well have been acquired by John from Joseph’s stock when he retired in 1697 or even on his death in 1711 before finishing and fitting with a dial. The fine proportions of the case closely echoes London work of the period. Despite being provincially made (probably Oxford) the case does exhibit features such as the distinctive spherical finials with button-shaped caps (which are often seen on other longcase clocks by the Knibb family) which set it aside from other provincial examples of the period.
