A Queen Anne brass lantern clock, John Lindley, Nayland, early 18th century. The posted countwheel bell-striking movement with anchor escapement and dial signed John Lindley, Nayland to the symmetrical foliate engraved centre within an applied Roman numeral chapter ring with cruciform half hour markers and original steel hand, with dolphin pattern frets and vase turned finials beneath domed bell bearer above, original brass side doors and iron backplate, on ball feet, 39cm high. John Lindley appears to be unrecorded however the construction of the movement using tapered arbors and the style of the engraving to the dial centre (with curved script signature) suggests a date within the first twenty years of the 18th century and can be directly compared to the work of other Suffolk makers such as William Rayment of Stowmarket (see White, George English Lantern Clocks p.343). The current lot has survived in good original condition retaining its original side doors and iron backplate. The above description should be read in conjunction with IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS printed in the sale catalogue. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports.

A Charles II brass two-handed lantern clock, unsigned but possibly by Marcos Peres, circa 1680. The posted countwheel bell-striking movement formerly with verge escapement and pendulum swinging between the trains, now with anchor escapement, the dial with Tudor rose and foliate engraved centre within applied Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised fleur de lys half hour markers and minute divisions to circumference, with steel hands, dolphin engraved frets and vase turned finials beneath domed bell bearer above, with later brass side doors and backplate, on ball feet, 39cm high. Although the current lot is unsigned, the dial can be directly compared to a quarter-chiming example by Marcos Peres illustrated in White, George English Lantern Clocks p.176. The above description should be read in conjunction with IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS printed in the sale catalogue. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports.

A fine and rare first period brass lantern clock, unsigned, circa 1635. The short-duration posted countwheel bell- striking movement formerly with verge and balance-wheel escapement now with verge and external short bob pendulum (swinging to the left hand side of the clock), with external alarm to the iron backplate, the dial with alarm disc within winged angel mask and alternating thistle-and-flower foliate trail engraved centre with original iron arrowhead hand and applied narrow Roman numeral chapter ring with asterisk half hour markers, the corners decorated with leafy-spray infill, the frame with heraldic frets and cup-and-cover turned finials beneath domed bell bearer and conforming finial, with later pointed-arch glazed brass side doors, on inverted acorn feet, 42cm high, with a carved oak wall bracket. This rare early London-style clock can be stylistically dated to the 1630s and loosely compared to examples by makers such as Peter Closon, William Sellwood and Francis Foreman. However the winged angel mask engraved motif to the dial centre is reminiscent of clocks from a slightly earlier period (see Loomes, Brian Lantern Clocks & Their Makers pages 50-51). The thistle decoration is also unusual and suggests a tantalising possibility that the clock could have Scottish origins, indeed the frame castings and general design are related to the work of Humphrey Mills of Edinburgh (op. cit. pages 331-333). However as it appears that Mills never incorporated alarms into his clocks, the current lot is unlikely to have come from his workshop. The conversion from balance to short pendulum regulation was done early in the clock's life and in such a way as to enable the retention of the alarm mechanism which was often removed during such conversions (to allow for the pendulum to be placed at the rear of the clock).
