Footnotes:Provenance: Christie's 13 November 2014, lot 138.George Clarke worked from Leadenhall Street, London throughout the second quarter of the 18th century. As well as supplying the UK domestic market with well-made longcase, bracket and lantern clocks, he also had a strong trade with the Eastern and Ottoman markets. These export markets preferred a more ostentatious style and Clarke made strong use of lacquer, tortoiseshell, mirror and glass to appeal to the continental aesthetic. A good example of this is the red-lacquered hooded wall clock made for the Turkish market which was sold in these rooms on 14th June 2005, lot 125. Perhaps his most famous extant clock is the large musical bracket clock with glass (or 'crystal') spherical finials and cupola over facetted glass columns in the collection of The Goldsmith's Company, previously in the Wetherfield Collection. It shares the same facetted glass columns as the current lot. Another comparable clock to this lot was recorded by Lord Macartney during his visit to China 1792-1794 in the Emperor's Great Hall of the Summer Palace:'At one end I observed a musical clock that played twelve old English tunes, the 'Black Joke', 'Lillibullero', and other airs of the 'Beggars' Opera'. It was decorated in a wretched old taste, with ornaments of crystal and coloured stones but had been, I dare say, very much admired in its time. On the dial appeared in large characters, 'George Clarke, Clock and Watch Maker, in Leadenhall Street, London.' 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.

A FINE AND RARE EARLY 18TH CENTURY FAUX TORTOISESHELL JAPANNED LONGCASE CLOCKBenjamin Broadhead, LondonThe caddy top with turned finials over a pierced fretwork cornice raised on brass-mounted Doric columns (the hood door opening to reveal a gilt-decorated mask) and a long trunk door with central lenticle, decorated in raised gesso and flat gilt work with chinoiserie figures, birds in flight and floral groups, to a conforming base, the 12 inch brass dial with early form of shallow arch centred by a strike/silent subsidiary dial and an engraved 'Green Man' mask flanked by foliate scrolls and Indian mask spandrels, the Roman and Arabic chapter ring with half-quarter marks and good blued steel hands, the matted centre with subsidiary seconds and chamfered date aperture, signed 'B. Broadhead, Londini Fecit' to the centre within a shaped foliate cartouche, the weight driven movement with five knopped pillars (the central one latched), with anchor escapement and internal rack strike on the bell. 250cms (8ft 2.5ins) high.Footnotes:Benjamin Broadhead was apprenticed to William Speakman in 1702, Speakman having just completed his 12 month duty as Master of the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers. Benjamin gained his Freedom after the standard 7 year apprenticeship, in 1709. There is much merit in this clock, the case is particularly high quality, with the sides measuring 1 and 3/16ths of an inch thick and the faux-tortoiseshell and gilt japanned decoration would have looked alive in the flickering light of a fireplace or Queen Anne candlestick. The dial of the clock is also rare for London work of the period - the Green Man mask in the arch is notable, as is the waisted signature cartouche to the centre - a closely related signature can be seen on a quarter chiming longcase clock of circa 1700/05 by Jonathan Puller in the Wetherfield Collection, item number 123, another by Puller is included in this sale, lot 72.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.

Sir Christopher Wren was a key supporter of his and may have been involved in Bradley being awarded the contract for the new clocks at St Pauls, Hampton Court and another in the Admiralty Building. King William III presented a Bradley watch to Wren on completion of St Pauls Cathedral. This lot may well have been supplied to Ireton Wood Hall from new. It was purchased more recently when the house, parts of which date back to the 17th century, was sold along with its 540 acres, in 2019.Literature: Cescinsky and Webster 'English Domestic Clocks', 1913, plate 147.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.
