Lot 1149
A LOUIS XVI NEOCLASSICAL ORMOLU, WHITE MARBLE AND BRONZE QUARTER-STRIKING MANTEL CLOCK VOISIN, PARIS, CIRCA 1790 The circular eight-day two train movement with anchor escapement regulated by gilt sunburst-mask cast bob pendulum incorporating silk suspension, the 'two-in-one' strike train ting-tang striking the quarters on a graduated pair of bells and sounding the hours on the larger of the two, the backplate with visible strikework and numbered 323 to lower margin, the 4.5 inch circular slightly convex white enamel Roman numeral dial signed VOISIN, a Paris to centre and with Arabic fifteen minutes within the outer minute track, with gilt moon hands within fine engine-milled repeating anthemion decorated bezel, the case with surmount cast as a pair of swans drinking from an oval footed planter containing bullrushes set on a marble block mounted over the drum housing the movement, fitted with chimera decorated scroll cast pendant mount flanked by a pair of kneeling winged female sphinx supports set on gilt star decorated black and white marble plinths with gilt lions paw feet, the breakfronted platform base inset with gilt frieze cast with putti and a ram drawn cart flanked by roundels cast with masks of Apollo, on gilt engine-milled squat bell-shaped feet 49cm (19.25ins) high, 32.5cm (11.75ins) wide, 11cm (4.25ins) deep.The present lot is most likely by one of two makers with the surname Voisin working in Paris during the closing years of the 18th century. The first possibility is Antoine-Henry Voison (1733 until after 1815) who took over his father's business in 1760. He became one of the most important Parisian clockmakers of the 18th century until the Revolution, collaborating with makers such as J.J. de Saint-Germain and B. Lieutaud for his casework. He first worked from rue Dauphine and later Quai des Grands-Augustins. The second (probably more likely) possibility is Henry Voisin who is recorded in Britten, F.J. Old Clocks & Watches AND THEIR MAKERS as working from Rue Thionville from before 1773 until 1807.The visible strikework to the movement backplate of the present lot is typical of Swiss clockmaking with similar layouts seen on the backplates of bracket clocks made in the Neuchatel region during the closing years of the 18th century. From this it would be reasonable to suggest that the movement for the present clock was supplied from a workshop located in Switzerland. Condition Report: Movement is very dirty/dusty, it will run but is prone to stopping and the strikework is currently not operating correctly. Both hammers are present and will operate however the rack is prone to not gather fully hence will run-through. This could be just be down to dirt grime. We have not taken the movement out of the case to check for losses/replacements and clock is being offered as a project requiring a clean/service/overhaul. The dial has some hairline cracks but no apparent losses; the text 'VOISIN' looks to have been strengthened, the hour hand is bent. The case is generally in good original condition with all mounts present retaining original finish with slight rubbing/wear oxidation only. The marble has overall yellowing (nicotine staining?) and some very slight edge wear and chipping in places otherwise case appears to free of notable faults.Clock has pendulum and a winding key.
