A rare mid-19th century mother-of-pearl-inlaid rosewood dial timepiece with revolving world time indicationJames Cooke, BirminghamThe octagonal case with inlaid border backed by a deep box with curved top and bottom apertures (the doors now absent), with a wall hook at both poles. The 12-inch dial with hinged cast brass bezel, solid, painted dial plate with Arabic minute ring and 43 different world locations featuring a prominent arrow pointer and Greenwich Mean Time below 60; the rotating painted Roman hour dial with I-XII repeated twice around the circumference, one XII being labelled beneath as Midday and the other as Midnight with the centre of the dial carrying two antique globes; Europe, Asia, Africa, and part of Oceania on the left and New Zealand and the Americas on the right below a steel minute hand, both plates being marked REGISTERED DECR2ND 1856 3910. The gut (now synthetic) fusee movement consisting of four knopped and bevelled pillars with an anchor escapement. Ticking, but crutch broken. Together with the pendulum. 42.5cms (16.5ins) high.Footnotes:The writing on the dial 'Registered Decr 2nd 1856 3910' is in reference to a Useful Registered Design application (intellectual property copyright) taken out by James Cooke of Birmingham on 2 December of 1856. The category for the registered design is listed as 'Clock or fingerpiece dial plates'.A dialmaker named James Cooke is listed as working in Birmingham from 1858-1880. Further, a dial making company was established named 'James Cooke and Son' in Birmingham in 1878, the proprietor having been in partnership with Edwin Howell since 1840 as 'Howell and Cooke'. James Cooke and Son would go on to make a new dial for the Shepherd clock at the Royal Observatory after the previous one suffered a bomb strike in October 1940. The new dial was installed in April/May 1947. James Cooke and Son was voluntarily wound up in 1980. Further information can be found on pages 84-90 of the March 2015 issue of the Antiquarian Horological Society Journal. An advert in the November 1953 Horological Journal for James Cooke and Son proclaims that they have been trading since 1840. Interestingly, the hemispheres which form part of the dial seem to be painted versions of James Wilson's dial transfer hemisphere maps, which were used on 13' painted longcase dials for moon phase apertures (see The Longcase Clock Reference Book by John Robey pg. 602) around 1793/5. James Wilson was a Birmingham dial maker who traded from 1777 until his death in 1809. Another dial maker took over his premises but closed the business permanently in 1811/12. As the transfers James Wilson used on his longcase dials are the same size as those on this clock, it does not seem unreasonable to suggest that 28 years after closing, a partnership of dial makers used some old stock transfer plates to print the hemispheres for their copyrighted world time dial.With grateful thanks to Tony Corsini of the British Library who was instrumental in tracing the Registered design mark to James Cooke & Sons.See Bateman, D. (2015) 'The replacement of the war-damaged Shepherd dial at Greenwich by James Cooke & Son of Birmingham', Antiquarian Horology, Volume 36(1), pgs. 84-90 (Accessed 23 March 2022) and Birch, E.

A late 17th century lantern clock in an oak freestanding caseWilliam Raynes, YorkThe delicately strapped bell with five turned finials between three dolphin and floral frets above four slender tapered pillars and two side doors (with slots for the pendulum) on ball feet, with iron hoop to the top plate and spikes below. The 6.25 inch silvered Roman dial, with fleur de lys half-hour markers and single blued steel hand to the Yorkshire rose engraved centre, signed above VI Will Raynes in Yorke. The movement driven by a chain and weight with verge escapement, the pendulum mounted centrally between the trains and swinging through the door slots, countwheel strike on the large bell. Contained in a 17th century oak floorstanding case of pegged construction and excellent colour. Together with two lead weights. 40cms (15.5 ins) highFootnotes:William Raynes was born near Helmsley in Yorkshire in 1638. In 1653, he was sent to London as an apprentice of the clockmaking brothers William and Ralph Almond, being freed in 1660 or 1661. Raynes remained in London, establishing himself in Butcher Row, East Smithfield; all the extant clocks from this London period are lantern clocks. In 1676, he is still listed as living in London, though by 1682 or 1683 he appears to have moved to York; he was certainly there by 1687, in which year he was made a Freeman of the City. Two of his lantern clock dials are very similar, not only to each other, but also to a dial on a clock by Thomas Cruttenden, another York clockmaker, and it seems likely that both Cruttenden and Raynes used the same engraver. William Raynes died in a riding accident on 28th December 1694. There are three lantern clocks and three longcase clocks signed William Raynes in York, one of the longcase clocks having been sold by Bonhams in 2014. This particular lantern clock has very short collets for the wheels, the collets themselves being integral to the arbor, a practice that was popular among very early London lantern clockmakers. The frets and the centre of the dial are engraved almost exactly the same as the other two lantern clocks by Raynes, and one by Cruttenden, with a York rose in the centre and ferocious looking dolphin/sea monster frets. One of these similar clocks may be seen in Lantern Clocks & Their Makers by Brian Loomes, Figure 18.9, pg. 320.For further reading, see Loomes, B.

A mid to late 18th century ebonised triple pad top table clockGeorg Philip Strigel, LondonSurmounted by a patinated brass leaf handle over three pads and fish scale side frets, framed by four chamfered pilasters and glazed front and back doors with moulded base and block feet. The painted Roman and Arabic dial with subsidiary dials at the top, one for 'Strike-Silent' and another for rise-and-fall regulation have stylised tulip hands, the minute and hour hands extravagantly pierced. The twin gut fusee movement with verge escapement, pinned suspension spring, and five knopped pillars has a symmetrically engraved floral and swag back plate, with a signature and engraved pendulum. Ticking, striking with a winding key. 39.5cms (15.5ins) highFootnotes:George Philip Strigel (1718 -1798) was watchmaker to Queen Charlotte and maintained all of the clocks that were owned by King George III. He worked from a shop in Pimlico between 1760-1788 and was appointed an honorary Freeman of the Clockmakers Company in 1781, likely due to his royal connections. Some clocks list his business as 'facing her Majesty's Pallace, (sic) London'. In addition to table clocks, examples survive of his watches, longcase clocks, and carriage clocks.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A rare and interesting late 17th century eight day longcase clock movement with trip repeat now contained in a later oak caseEdward East, LondonThe 12 inch square brass dial with an engraved wheatear border and twin cherub and crown spandrels framing the silvered Roman and Arabic chapter ring engraved with sword hilt half-quarter marks, elaborate half hour marks and signed between VII and V, the finely matted centre with subsidiary seconds and a square date aperture with chamfered edges and decorated with birds and a basket of fruit, the four dial feet pinned to the frontplate of the tall (5in x 8in) rectangular plates, the plates united by six knopped and finned pillars latched to the frontplate, the high barrels driving an anchor escapement with small diameter 'scape wheel, the bell striking operated via an internal rack, the repeat lever with protruding steel arm pivoted so as to activate the repeat of the last hour struck by pulling from either side. Now contained in a later 18th century oak case with mahogany hood and banding. 1.92m (6ft 3.5in) high. 1.92m (6ft 4ins) high. Footnotes:Provenance: Single family ownership for over 90 years, bought in Cornwall in the 1930's.Edward East (1602-1696) was the youngest Assistant to the court of the Clockmakers Company on its formation in 1632. During his time in office as Master, in 1645 and again in 1653, he held meetings at his premises in Fleet Street, at the 'Musical Clock'. In 1660 he was appointed Chief Clockmaker to the King. He quickly adopted the pendulum on its introduction and made some of the finest clocks of the immediate post 1657 era. During his long working life, he took on eight apprentices: Thomas Wolverstone, Robert Hanslapp, Walter Gibbs, Edward Wagstaff, Henry Jones, John East, Adam Pearce and Richard Bellinger. The London Gazette of January 22nd-26th 1690 records that a Mr East was working at 'the Sun outside Temple Bar'. He died a rich man and when Henry Jones, one of his previous apprentices, was Master of the Company, East gave the Company a gift of £100; to his credit, Jones matched this sum.The style of the current clock movement is very much based on earlier period practises, with tall plates and latched pillars. It is possible the movement may have been left over from a batch made in the East workshop some years beforehand and later sold with a 'modern' 12 inch square dial.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

Stanton was later apprenticed to Nathaniel Allen in 1658, before he was freed through the Clockmakers Company around 1662/3 soon taking his own apprentices, including Stephen Wilmot and William Cattell. He became Master of the Company in 1697 and served until 1707. He probably died in 1715. As well as a clockmaker, he was also an engraver; in January 1673/4 he was accused of engraving Robert Seigniour's name on a clock made by Henry Jones, though no action was ever taken against him. In 1694 he was one of the original subscribers to the Bank of England and deposited £100.He seems to have been friends with the fellow clockmaker John Ebsworth and oversaw that his will was carried out on his death. He made a number of clocks including a turret clock for the Royal Exchange in 1671 as well as spring driven clocks, standard lantern clocks, miniature lantern clocks, longcase clocks, and a particularly rare night clock sold in these rooms in December 2007.No definitive Parish records have been discovered for Edward Stanton which may indicate he was a nonconformist. The above information has been gleaned from the Clockmakers Company records and Loomes, B. (2009) 'Edward Stanton and his Lantern Clocks', Horological Journal, Volume 151(01), pgs. 14-17.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The silvered circular clock dial with Roman and Arabic numerals framing the large subsidiary seconds dial and rare shaped moonphase aperture at VI with painted moon on a starry ground, with blued steel hands.

He was originally from Camelford in Cornwall, where his grandfather had been the Mayor between 1689-1695. His family had been living in the county since at least the 1500's. In 1745, he married Elizabeth Dinham and they had two children; a son Edmund, who married and returned to Cornwall and a daughter, Elizabeth, who sadly died in 1753. He died on 1st October 1796 and his will describes him as watch maker working from premises at 31 Hatton Garden, where he had been since 1780, and living at that time in St. Andrew, Holborn. One of his executors is listed simply as 'Elliot', there were several clock and watchmakers of this name in London around this time, and it is quite possible that one of his executors was a fellow horologist. In the will he instructed his executor to sell off the Hatton Garden premises in order to pay for his bequests and any outstanding debts. His bequests included funds for his wife to be kept for the rest of her life; £20 to his nephew John and John's two daughters, as well as bequeathing John his full wardrobe; £20 to his servant, Anne, and £20 to his executor. Beyond these bequests, he wanted the remaining funds to be divided equally between his grandchildren when each reached 21 years of age; and his son Edmund's wife, should she be a widow at that time The current clock is very similar to another Perpetual calendar longcase by Prideaux, illustrated on pg. 416, Figure 11/55, in The Longcase Clock by Tom Robinson. It has been suggested that, because the calendar mechanism is so complicated, yet practically identical to that of an Eardley Norton perpetual calendar longcase, both makers were using the same supplier.

A fine early-mid 18th century burr walnut silver-mounted, quarter repeating table clockHenry Thornton, LondonThe inverted bell top with solid silver handle and four finials over pierced quadrants and twin silk-backed sound frets, to a moulded base on solid silver block feet, the 7 inch arched brass dial with solid silver strike/silent subsidiary flanked by silver Green Man mounts over the solid silver Roman and Arabic chapter ring framed by Indian head spandrels, with blued steel hands, the matted centre with wide mock pendulum aperture, applied signature plaque and chamfered date aperture. The twin gut (now wire) fusee movement with six knopped pillars and knife edge verge escapement, rack striking on the hour on a large bell (cast internally with the initials JD and a five-pointed star), and repeating the quarters on demand via a pull cord to the right side. The backplate engraved with twin Green Man masks in profile amid a series of symmetrical foliate scrolls, secured in the case via two engraved L-shaped brass brackets and turnbuckles on the dial plate. Ticking, striking and repeating. 49cms (1ft 7ins) high.Footnotes:Henry Thornton was apprenticed to Samuel Stevens in 1692. It is possible that this was the same Samuel Stevens who was working in Grub Street, London, between 1680-1703, and who was himself apprenticed to Edward Stanton. Thornton gained his Freedom in 1699 and by 1723 he was known to be working at 'ye Dial' in Basing Lane, suffering a burglary that year where a silver dial worth 18d, was stolen. He moved to the Royal Exchange around 1730. The last record of him in the Clockmakers Company is 1732, a date which is tentatively put forward as the year he died. There is an unusually high proportion of his extant work in Russia, suggesting that he had early business links with the court - two gold pocket watches from the Tsar's personal collection (one of which is repeating) are now in the State Hermitage Museum, together with a large musical organ clock with 12 tunes and gilt mirrored case. A six-tune musical longcase clock and two chiming clocks are also known to be in Russia.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

His work can be found in the Victoria and Albert Museum and a longcase clock was in the Wetherfield Collection. After 1699 he worked with the widow of Francis Stamper, meaning he was also a Quaker. He was obviously a maker of some repute and was well connected within the horological trade. A table clock by him was sold in these rooms the 8 June 2004.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
