Y A FINE GEORGE IV BRASS 'FIRST PERIOD' SKELETON TIMEPIECE WITH SECONDS-BEATING LEVER ESCAPEMENTJAMES CONDLIFF, LIVERPOOL, CIRCA 1825-30The single chain fusee train set between demi-lune shaped plates pierced with a band of crescents enclosing pendant cruciform motifs over repeating spire designs, united by four knopped pillars, with open-walled spring barrel, Harrison's maintaining power, six-spoke wheel crossings and contrate take-off for the oversized English lever escapement slung beneath the plate onto which the movement rests, regulated by a 2.5 inch faceted three-arm monometallic balance with blued steel timing screws, jewelled pivots and helical spring held in the mouth of gilt serpent applied to the lower case platform, the dial with centre seconds, silvered Roman numeral chapter ring, blued steel moon hands and visible motionwork incorporating five-spoke wheel crossings applied to the movement frontplate behind, the frame with large acorn-turned finial to the apex of the plates and four further conforming finials set on each corner of the plate beneath the movement, raised on four column-turned corner uprights over a rectangular platform centred with the balance wheel lower pivot and the applied with the gilt brass coiled serpent, the front with Classical male mask centred double lyre cast mount flanked by rosettes formed from six interlinked beehives, on ball feet; secured to a red velvet-lined rosewood veneered plinth to take the glass dome cover (damaged), with canted angles and line-strung borders over bun feet.The timepiece 32.5cm (12.75ins) high, 26cm (10.5ins) wide, 11.5cm (4.5ins) deep; including stand and dome 51cm (20ins) high, 35cm (13.75ins) wide, 19cm (7.5ins) deep. Provenance:Long-term single private family ownership since at least 1880. Catalogue Amendment 23/08/23; the underside of the upper frame plate is stamped J. CONDLIFF, LIVERPOOL behind the escapement top pivot.James Condliff set up as a clock and watchmaker at 32 Gerard Street, Liverpool in 1813. He then had premises on Circus Street (1819-22) and Fraser Street (1823-62). In 1827 he was joined in partnership by Joseph Condliff and continued from workshops in Fraser Street as well as from an address in Clare Street. Joseph Condliff subsequently opened a branch under his name alone in Everton and John Condliff took-on premises at Mount Vernon. James Condliff is believed to have retired by 1862 and died in 1884 and was most likely succeeded by Thomas Condliff who is recorded working in Liverpool 1867-1914. Derek Roberts in British Skeleton Clocks (pages 99-113) classifies Condliff's skeleton clocks into three distinct periods/types, with the first dating 1825-50, the second 1850 to circa 1870, and the third 1855-60. The current lot is from the first series which are typified by having arched plates set on a rectangular platform raised on columns. These models also incorporate a sprung balance with the end of the spring held by a serpent applied to the upper surface of a second, lower platform. Examples incorporating a second striking train include the additional feature of having their spring barrels set within the base, and the fusee chains passing up (past the balance) to the trains above. With these the base also serves to conceal the bell/gong and hammer. The present lot, being a timepiece only, benefits from having the barrel set between the plates hence leaving the base platform free to feature the escapement, balance and serpent uncluttered. The present timepiece is a particularly rare example from only a handful of first period skeleton clocks by Condliff. It also benefits from being a previously un-recorded example privately consigned from long-term single-family ownership. Condition Report: Timepiece is generally in fine original clean condition with no visible evidence of alteration or notable replacements. The train is fundamentally in running condition however at some point someone has attempted to wind via the spring barrel arbor causing the fusee chain to become unhitched and whiplash around the left-hand pillar and frame edge resulting in some bruising/marks to both the pillar, the edge of the plate and around a pierced aperture to the centre. The marks to the plate can probably be filed-out leaving little or no trace, and the pillar can possibly be removed without parting the plates (is pinned and screwed rather than riveted to one of the plates) and turned to remove the marks. The worst case scenario is that a replacement pillar may need to be turned from suitable yellow brass. The fusee chain is correctly attached but has not been set-up/tensioned (via the barrel ratchet) - this will be required before it will run under its own power for the entire eight-day duration. The timepiece is running and escapement beats happily when it is wound over about 1/3 way. As with the rest of the timepiece the chapter ring and hands are in fine condition and the serpent together with the front rail mounts retain fine gilt finish. The platform base has a slight casting fault to the rear left hand corner beneath the column base. The rosewood base and dome appear contemporary with the clock but may have been acquired separately (could be French); the glass dome is badly cracked at the rear.Timepiece is complete with a decoratively turned winding key.
