A rare gilt brass carriage clock with push-button repeat, alarm and musical movement to baseUnsigned, late 19th centuryThe eight-day gong striking movement with silvered platform lever escapement and sounding the alarm on the same gong, the backplate stamped with serial number 1525 to lower left hand corner, the rectangular engine-milled and stylised foliate scroll gilt engraved silvered dial with recessed circular Roman numeral centre incorporating gilt rosette and shield cartouche numeral decoration and with blued steel hands over conforming alarm disk to lower margin, the bevel-glazed gilt brass anglaise riche case with hinged reeded baton carrying handle over fluted cornice, Corinthian three-quarter corner columns, on architectural plinth base with complex upper mouldings and skirt enclosing a musical mechanism playing a Viennese waltz via a 1.5 inch pinned cylinder and tuned steel comb on demand only by pulling a plunger next to the winding key to the left hand side, on four turned toupe feet, 18.5cm (7.25ins) high excluding handle. Provenance: The beneficiary of the Estate of a private collector, East Midlands. The provision of a musical movement in the base of the current clock is a very rare detail.Condition Report: The movement is running with no visible evidence of alteration or significant replacements; the strike train will operate but only by depressing the repeat button hence the under-dial release mechanism requires adjustment (looking in form the side the respective lever etc. appears to be present). The movement is generally somewhat dirty/oily hence a gentle clean/service is required. The musical movement in the base is intact and working with no visible damage to the combs or pins; the sound is also good. The dial has rubbing/wear to the Roman numerals and slight tarnishing to the hour disc otherwise in in fine condition. The front glass has some shallow internal chipping to both upper corners (visible on close examination) otherwise glasses are free from visible damage. The gilding to the case is in fine condition with no visible wear or discolouration and the surfaces are free from any scuffs/blemishes worth noting although a couple of very tiny bumps can be found to the extremities of the mouldings. The base plate is missing two securing screws however these are superfluous as the panel is held secure by the feet.There is no key present for the movement however there is one for the musical mechanism. Condition Report Disclaimer

He specialised in cuckoo clocks and through his continuous development became the leading maker of fine and complex examples. His main export markets were to Russia (where he had a distribution warehouse in St. Petersburg) and the British Isles. He died in 1898 leaving the business to be continued by his sons Lorenz and Engelbert.Condition Report: Movement appears complete and fundamentally all-original and has been fairly recently (within the last five years or so) overhauled/restored to a high standard by a suitably skilled horologist hence is in full working order including the automaton and music mechanism in the base. The bellows for the bird call have been re-lined and the music mechanism in the base overhauled with no visible damage/losses to the teeth of the comb.The dial has numerous light hairline cracks to the enamel and some filled-in chips around the right-hand winding hole. The case is in good condition with significant faults limited to a well-executed repair to the left hand tip of the cornice mouldings, a patch repair to the rear panel, overall light bumps, scuffs, shrinkage and wear commensurate with age and use.Clock has pendulum and winding keys both for the clocks and music mechanisms. Condition Report Disclaimer

A walnut vertical Buffet type cabinet music box with 11 inch discsBarnett Henry Abrahams, St. Croix and London, late 19th centuryWith steel framed large going barrel movement set behind a glass panel beneath vertical silver painted cast iron bed incorporating a 5 inch tuned steel comb and respective series of star wheels engaging with pierced projections in the steel tune disc secured over the mechanism by a pivoted latched arm and driven by a toothed wheel engaging with perforations to the rim of the disc at the base, the upper section of the cast bed cast with 'THE BRITANNIA, *B.H.A.*, ST. CROIX.LONDON', the case with turned finials and balustrade gallery over ogee cornice and fretwork frieze to entablature and a pair of book-matched veneered crossbanded and line inlaid doors applied with Britannia and Royal Warrant transfers, on moulded skirt base incorporating winding square and PLAY/STOP lever to right hand side over turned feet, 77cm (30.25ins) high; with twelve discs. Barnett Henry Abrahams was born in 1839, he was initially a dealer in music boxes but by 1857 had emigrated to Switzerland where he founded a musical box manufacturing business. In 1895 he established himself in Sainte-Croix and started to manufacture disc music boxes, many of which were for the British market and hence labelled 'The Britannia'. The business had a London address at 133/135 Houndsitch and was continued after Abrahams death in 1902 by his sons until around 1915.Condition Report: Movement is a little dirty/oily but is in full working condition with no visible damage to the steel comb and plays at an appropriate speed with good strong sound. The case has a triangular veneer chip approx. ¾ inch across to the outside edge of the crossbanded border of the right-hand front door and some smaller chips to the top edge of the cornice projection as well as some slight veneer lifting to the centre behind the ebonised gallery. The transfers to the front door are a little worn as is the ebonised finish to the mouldings around the base, otherwise case is in sound original condition with only relatively minor bumps, scuff, and other faults commensurate with age and use. There is a winding crank included with the lot. Condition Report Disclaimer
