Provenance: Private collection, East Midlands. Pierre Drocourt is recorded in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS, Their history and development with further additions and corrections from research undertaken by Leigh Extence (available online) as born in 1819 and setting up in business as a clockmaker in Paris in 1853. He initially worked from Rue Limoges (later called 28 Rue Debelleyme after the rationalisation and merger of Streets in 1865), Paris and was succeeded by his son, Alfred (born 1847), in 1872. The blancs roulants, rough movements, were made in Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont, a town outside Dieppe, where Drocourt had workshops until their sale in 1904, being premises purchased from Holingue frères in 1875 who had previously supplied Drocourt. The firm was awarded numerous international exhibition medals and mentions including Silver in Paris 1878 and Gold in 1889. Condition Report: The movement appears all-original and is in full working order. The escapement has been relatively recently cleaned and no longer retains its silvered finish. The movement otherwise is a little discoloured hence a precautionary service is advised. The dial has slight mellowing to the gilding as well as some slight concentric rubbing and a couple of tiny blemishes to the chapter ring. The case is in fine condition with almost flawless, gilding (only slight discolouration in places). The glasses appear free from visible damage and the enamel side panels are in fine condition with the only visible fault being a very slight chip in the blue field to the right-hand panel (a very small slither only visible on close examination with the light reflecting off the surface).There is no winding key present with the clock.
