A rare George II walnut large bracket clock Windmills & Wightman, London, circa 1735 The five-pillar twin fusee rack and bell striking movement with verge escapement, rise/fall regulation and Hoho bird inhabited foliate engraved backplate signed Windmills & Wightman, LONDON within a circular cartouche to centre, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with false bob and calendar apertures and arched signature plaque to the matted centre, within an applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes and fleur de lys half hour markers, with female mask and scroll cast spandrel applied angles beneath rise/fall regulation dial between dolphin cast mounts to arch, the case with later inverted bell top and foliate pierced frets above husk and scroll carved canted angles with conforming frets and brass handles to sides, on cavetto moulded base with shaped apron, 74cm high. The exact date on which William Wightman joined the celebrated Windmills firm is uncertain however Ordnance Office bills record the partnership in September 1735 (see Neale, J.A. Joseph and Thomas Windmills, Clock and Watch Makers 1671-1737, p.233). Five longcase clocks are recorded by Neale but no bracket, lantern clocks or watches are noted. The reason why this unusually large clock was made is uncertain however another ebonised example (a timepiece with silent pull repeat signed Windmills) is described by Neale and a walnut clock of similar proportions but with a rectangular dial by George Graham was formerly in the Iden collection. It is probable that such clocks were utilised in a semi-public context where the use of a longcase clock would be problematic.
