A rare French Louis XV provincial iron framed rack-striking lantern clock The bell signed for Jean Dubois, mid 18th century The posted inside rack-striking two handed movement with vertically pivoted hour hammer, passing half-hour strike via second hammer sounding on the same bell and anchor escapement regulated by 48 inch pendulum swinging outside the frame to the rear, the 8 inch circular cast brass twenty-four piece white enamel Roman numeral cartouche dial with profile bust, dolphin and foliate scroll decorated centre and Arabic five minutes to outer track beneath Classical mask, Ho-Ho bird and cockerel pierced crest, frame with rectangular section corner posts continuing above the top plate to support the domed bell bearer with turned top finial and enclosing bell cast with inscription JEAN DUBOIS AU PUY , on tall integral spike feet carrying scroll cast openwork apron mount to front, 43.5cm (17.25ins) high; with a carved oak wall bracket, 63.5cm (25ins) high overall. A Jean Dubois does not appear in the usual sources however a Jean Duboys is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as working in Lyon in 1685.

A rare Charles I first period brass lantern clock Anonymous but possibly by Richard Milbourne, London, circa 1620-30; the dial later inscribed for John Harford, Bath, 1658 The posted movement now with verge escapement regulated by short bob pendulum swinging outside the frame to the rear and Huygen s endless rope winding, the reversed strike train with countwheel planted to the rear and sounding the hours on a bell set above the top plate, the dial with elaborate rose centred vestigial alarm disc and sculpted iron hand enveloped by fine engraved infill incorporating winged angel mask over opposing lions mask inhabited stylised foliate scrolls issuing from cornucopiae and grotesque mask positioned just above six o'clock, within an applied Roman numeral chapter ring with simple wheatear half hour markers, the upper angles engraved John Harford, in Bath, 1658 over earlier leafy sprays matching those to the lower angles, the distinctive frame with one-piece column turned corner posts incorporating rounded blocks at the junctions with the top and bottom plates beneath symmetrical foliate strapwork pierced frets decorated with engraved detail to the front, integral multi-knopped ovoid vase-turned corner finials and domed bell bearer cast with pierced decoration between the limbs surmounted by a later substantial cup-and-cover vase finial, with brass side doors and on ring-turned ball feet, 32cm (12.5ins) high excluding later finial; 39.5cm (15.5ins) high overall; with an oak wall bracket and 19th century cylindrical brass cased weight embossed in the Arts and Crafts style with monogram DIW. The current lot can be directly compared to an example dated to circa 1610-1620 signed Richard Milborne fecit in holborne illustrated and described in Loomes, Brian LANTERN CLOCKS & Their Makers on pages 49-50 (Figures 5.10-11). In particular the engraving to the centre of the dial of the Milborne clock is almost identical to that of the present lot. In addition to this they also share the same pattern of frame casting and the unusual detail of having a lateral hammer stop applied to the top plate (removed from the current lot but evidence in the form of a vacant lot is still present). From this it would be reasonable to suggest that both originate from Milborne s workshop evidenced by the fact that the signed example is inscribed directly into the dial plate along with fecit. . Loomes also illustrates (Figures 5.2-9) another larger clock with dial engraved by the same hand and related frame castings which also could have originated from the same workshop. A detail worth noting is that this larger unsigned clock was made without an alarm, hence the centre is engraved with infill to occupy the space which would have been taken by a setting disc. This infill takes the form of a two-tier complex radial rosette almost identical to the one decorating the alarm disc of the current lot (suggesting that the disc itself is a rare original survivor). A third clock utilising the same frame castings and with dial engraving clearly by the same hand is illustrated in White, George English Lantern Clocks on page 82 (Figure II/94). This example was once in the Iden collection and is fitted with a non-original front fret bearing a signature for William Selwood hence is described by White as by an unknown maker. Although the angel and demon engraved decoration departs a little from the design seen on the others noted above it is clear that the similarities are strong enough to suggest that it was made in the same workshop (possibly that of Richard Milborne). From these observations it would seem reasonable to conclude that the present clock and the three clocks described above can be considered a series. Very little is known of Richard Milborne; Brian Loomes notes in Clockmakers of Britain 1286-1700 that A Richard Milborne and his wife, Mary had two children baptised at St. Clement Danes, Elizabeth and Mary in 1634 and 37 respectively. The identification of the current lot as being London first period work possibly from the workshop of Richard Milborne confirms that the engraved inscription for John Harford of Bath was added at a later date. John Harford is recorded by Loomes in Clockmakers of Britain 1286-1700 as born in Chippenham, Wiltshire in 1632. His uncle (on his maternal side) was the clockmaker John Snow of West Lavington and his father (John senior) may have been the clockmaker John Har(t)ford who was made a Free Brother of the Clockmakers Company in 1632 and Assistant in 1649. John Harford junior was apprenticed to his uncle John Snow from 1646 until 1653 and is thought to have worked in Bath from around 1654. He was described as a watchmaker in 1677 when his son (again of the same name) was apprenticed in London and is thought to have continued working until the end of the century. The presence of Harford s signature on the current lot would suggest that he probably acquired the clock and perhaps overhauled the mechanism prior to retailing it under his own name. On close examination the chapter ring appears to have been replaced at the same time of the execution of the signature. Indeed evidence in the form of extant earlier engraved decoration beneath indicates the original chapter ring was narrower whilst Harford's signature and date appear to have been executed to comfortably occupy the space above the current chapter ring.

A fine and very rare oak architectural floor-standing case for a first period lantern clock Anonymous, probably second quarter of the 17th century The superstructure now with fixed glazed top and ogee-cornice over architectural arch-glazed apertures to three sides, the front and right hand side attached by iron hinges to each other and to the backboard, the right hand side also attached via hinges to the backboard which is now applied with a print of Britannia seated on a globe, each of the three faces with faceted keystone flanked by raised quadrant panel infill to the arch springing from blocks applied with hipped pads over uprights decorated with tapered decorative split-turned batons, the integral trunk resembling a Roman Doric pilaster with moulded capital incorporating frieze bordered with slender stepped-ogee moulding to lower margin, over a full-width door to front applied with stepped oval panel centred with a domed button and issuing vertical slender straps and horizontal rails applied with further hipped pads, the lower section with additional further thicker horizontal strap issuing shaped vertical extensions and applied with another faceted panel to centre surrounded by domed buttons, the field decorated with additional vertical half-round split-batons, the sides with decoration matching the front above elaborate double skirt base with ogee top moulding to upper tier and ledge over generous cavetto moulding to the lower, 193cm (76ins) high; the body of the trunk 24cm (9.5ins) wide by 28cm (11ins) deep excluding the applied decoration. Provenance: The base of the backboard applied with a paper label inscribed in ink Cap t De Burgho Hodge, Exleigh, Tiverton. Online records of THE LONDON GAZETTE have two entries relating to Captain Edward DeBurgho Hodge: 24th May, 1861 Light Dragoons, Lieutenant De Burgho . Edward Hodge , from the 15th Foot, to be Lieu- tenant, vice Samuel Adams, who exchanges. 9th July, 1880 William Hodge , Gage John Hodge , and De Burgho Edward . Hodge , carrying on business in copartnership at Devonport, in the county of Devon, as Bankers, under the style or firm of William Hodge , William Chapell Hodge , and Company, the Devonport Bank, was, on the 1st day of July, 1880, dis- solved, by mutual consent. In addition to these The Plymouth and West Devon Record Office holds a document dated 31st July 1880 indicating the release (with later endorsements - 365/50) of De Burgho Edward Hodge of Sandwell, Harberton, Captain of the 12th Lancers. From these records it would appear that Edward DeBurgho Hodge was related to WillIam Hodge of the Devonport Bank, and, after serving in the Light Dragoons (up to 1861) and the 12th Lancers, entered into a new banking partnership with William Hodge in 1880. Exleigh, Tiverton and Sandwell, Harberton are both late Georgian Neo-Classical houses; Exleigh being a substantial Villa and Sandwell a Country House. The current lot appears to be a remarkable survivor which, on stylistic grounds, would appear to date to before the Civil War. The overall form is purely architectural conceived as a glazed arched loggia resting on top of a Roman Doric inspired pilaster. The strapwork decoration to the trunk follows that Jacobean architectural practice with similar designs often seen on fireplace surrounds. A good example dating from the 1630 s which exhibits comparable decoration (to the jambs of the overmantel) can be seen in the great chamber at Doughton House, Gloucestershire (illustrated in Cooper, Nicholas THE JACOBEAN COUNTRY HOUSE on page 105). In addition to this, details such as the applied faceted/hipped panels and buttons together with the tapered split turnings (flanking the glazed arched apertures) can be compared to those applied to an enclosed deed chest made by the joiner Francis Bower for the Shrewsbury Draper s Company in 1637 (illustrated in Chinnery, Victor OAK FURNITURE, The British Tradition on page 53, Figures 2:5 and 2:6). Evidence in the upper and lower rails of each of the arch-glazed panels indicate that when originally made the arches were narrower (i.e. were essentially semi-circular in profile). Indeed at some point the arches appear to have been widened by a little over an inch by inserting extensions into the rails at their centres. The original form of the loggia would have therefore been narrower and hence perhaps more suited to the proportions of a standard lantern clock. The overall appearance of the case in its original form would have therefore perhaps served to enclose a lantern clock and display it in almost a reliquary manner elevated on a Classically inspired pedestal. In addition to this the current lot has seen some further relatively minor repairs and additions over the years including a replacement top panel incorporating glazed insert and skirting around the base. The latter has the appearance of being executed by an estate workshop during the mid 19th century and adds to the overall country house feel of the case. The numerous split half-round batons applied to the front and sides of the trunk may also be early additions. Notwithstanding these observations the overall the structure of the case appears to have survived in remarkably sound original condition. When considering the dating evidence above (which strongly suggests a date of around 1630-40) the current lot would appear to have been made during the first period of lantern clock production. Indeed relatively detailed investigation by the cataloguer has failed to identify other floor standing lantern clock cases that can be dated to prior to the Civil War. With this in mind it would therefore be reasonable to suggest that the current case could well be the earliest surviving English purpose made floor-standing case for a domestic clock, and, as such, would make the perfect companion for the previous lot.

An English patinated brass octagonal sundial Bearing initials I.R.M. and date 1700 but probably earlier The 6 inch octagonal plate fitted with scroll decorated angled gnomon set at 52 degrees and engraved with circle, radial lines and bearing inscribed initials I.R.M. to centre, the narrow outer track with Roman numeral chapters IIII-XII-VIII divided into quarter-hours and bearing date 1700 between IIII and VIII, the angles drilled for fixing. The octagonal shape, centre engraving and narrow chapter ring of the current lot is similar to that of two related sundials by William Bowyer and Richard Hinton illustrated and discussed in White, George NOT A BAD TIMEKEEPER: THE ENGLISH LANTERN CLOCK IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY (Antiquarian Horology Vol. 31 Sept. 2009 pages 624-8). As White suggests that these examples were made by clockmakers to be supplied alongside lantern clocks then it would perhaps be reasonable to suggest that the current lot was also possibly made by a clockmaker for the same purpose. The rear of the plate has some neat hammering behind the engraved initials and date suggesting that earlier engraving was removed prior to the current text being executed. This, combined with the stylistic similarities with the Bowyer and Hinton dials, would support the possibility that the current lot may well date from the first half of the 17th century.
