Signed in a low rectangular cartouche Thomas Tompion Londini Fecit, framed by a cross-hatched pair of scrolls set within a symmetrical pattern of foliate scrolls and hanging bell flowers, attributed to Graver 155. Ticking, striking and repeating, sold together with a later winding key and two door keys. 39cms (15.5ins) high. Footnotes:This textbook example of the Tompion workshop was made circa 1691. When it originally left the Tompion workshop it was given the number 181. We will never know the full details of the collections it has graced over the last 230+ years, but in June 1957 it featured in an advertisement in Antiquarian Horology, offered for sale by the well-respected antique dealers Biggs of Maidenhead. In December 1973 the great R.A. Lee advertised it in The Connoisseur magazine. At some stage thereafter, it made its way into a private collection in Wiltshire, England. Unfortunately, exactly three centuries after the clock was made, the then owner was the subject of a burglary. The theft was reported in Trace magazine as well as Antiquarian Horology (Spring 1992). To help recovery, two black and white photographs were supplied by the family showing the clock at a three-quarter angle from the front and rear. The UK police investigated the event, and Interpol were alerted, although nothing was heard. Fast forward 31 years to the winter of 2022 when Bonhams were invited to assess the collection of the great Dutch connoisseur and collector, the late Cornelis Paulus van Pauwvliet. Mr Paulus van Pauwvliet had spent a lifetime collecting the finest furniture, silver, rugs and works of art from dealers all over Europe, all housed in his penthouse apartment a stone's throw from the Rijksmuseum. The majority of the collection was sold in our New Bond Street headquarters in November 2023. But one lot was held back - for the time being at least – from the main auction. As per Bonhams standard practice, everything in the collection was checked prior to it being entered for sale against the Art Loss Register. There was a potential match with a registration on its database - the Thomas Tompion bracket clock offered here today. The only notable difference between the 'lost number 181' and the Paulus van Pauwvliet example was the lack of number. In all other respects, the two were a perfect match. Through careful comparison of the current clock and the black and white images, particularly the medullary rays showing in the oak carcass of the open back door, the conclusion was reached that this clock is indeed Tompion number 181, its number having been expertly removed. A 31-year-old mystery had been solved. Both parties were keen to work together to find an equitable solution. Under the guidance of legal teams and the Art Loss Register, an agreement has been reached whereby the clock is offered today on behalf of the theft victims and the Estate of Cornelis Paulus van Pauwvliet.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
