Lot 63

A fine George III mahogany cistern tube stick barometer with hygrometer or Triple Weather Glass Benjamin Martin, London, circa 1760. The arched top case with leaf carved surround for the inset herringbone border engraved vernier scale with arched hygrometer scale above Fahrenheit and Reaumur mercury thermometer and signed B. Martin, London, the caddy moulded trunk with scroll carved edges to throat and exposed tube above hemispherical cistern cover mounted onto the scroll edged rounded base, 94cm high, B.C. Ref. 18. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube pages 58 and 59. Benjamin Martin is recorded by Banfield as working 1756-82. He was a prolific writer and produced many books on differing scientific subjects and in 1755 launched a monthly magazine called General Magazine of the Arts and Sciences which ran until 1765. He is thought to be the first maker to incorporate a hygrometer into a barometer with a thermometer and marketed the instrument as Triple Weather Glass. The hygrometer utilises a length of gut (which expands or contracts with variations in humidity) linked to a rack and pulley rather than the usual oat beard found on later hygrometers. The work of Benjamin Martin is further described in Goodison, Nicholas English BAROMETERS 1680-1860 Part II Some Important Makers and Retailers pages 179-185. Goodison illustrates a very similar example to the current Lot (plates 120 and 121) a well as reproductions of similar scale layouts from Martins original publications (plates 118 and 119).

Lot 89

A fine and rare inlaid and crossbanded mahogany mercury wheel barometer with 12 inch dial Attributed to Christopher Bettally, London, circa 1790. The 12 inch circular silvered register calibrated in inches and with hinged turned wooden bezel within kingwood crossbanded surround beneath baluster outline trunk with setting pointer adjustment disc and centred with an oval rosette inlaid patera within conforming banded borders, the swan neck pediment with silvered hygrometer, the rear of the instrument veneered in mahogany with circular glazed door behind register beneath further rectangular tall glazed panel revealing syphon tube, 95cm high, B.C. Ref. 121. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Wheel or Banjo page 34 and described on page 32. Christopher Bettally is recorded by Banfield as working from 1 Charlotte Street, Pimlico and 292 Oxford Street, London 1787-93. A pair of barometers of very similar form signed C. Bettally, London are illustrated in Goodison, Nicholas English BAROMETERS 1680-1860 page 104. This pair were supplied to Lord Bute and are dated 1787 and stand on Adam influence giltwood triform stands. Goodison suggests that the stands are probably later. The current example is unusual, having mahogany veneers and glazed door to the rear of the case suggesting that it was designed to be seen from behind which indicates that it may well have been made with the option to mount it onto a stand similar to the pair supplied to Lord Bute. This group of instruments appear to be examples of probably the earliest developed form of the English wheel barometer, Goodison suggests that the form was inspired by French examples and, as Bettally had a shop in Paris, he may well have been the first to produce this particular type of barometer in England.

Lot 125

A fine and rare George III mahogany cistern tube angle barometer Whitehurst, Derby, circa 1775. With square section finial to the cavetto moulded and gadrooned pediment above angled silvered glazed scale calibrated from 0 to 57 with Stormy, RAIN, Changeable, FAIR, Settled Fair predictions and signed Whitehurst, DERBY to left-hand corner of lower edge, within an ogee moulded surround and behind an exposed tube, the caddy moulded trunk with concealed tube and crossbanded borders to the figured veneers, the shaped base with half cylinder turned cistern cover with ring turned girdle and finials to top and bottom, 94cm high, B.C. Ref. 81. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube page 156. John Whitehurst is recorded by Banfield as being born in 1713 and dying in 1788, he moved to London in 1775 to take the post of Stamper of Money Weights at the Royal Mint, London. It is thought that his brother, James, managed the Derby business until his son, John (2), was old enough to run it. He in turn took his son, also called John (3), into partnership circa 1810 when the business became known as Whitehurst and Son. The partnership continued until 1834 when John (2) died. John Whitehurst senior became friendly with the astronomer and lecturer James Ferguson in London and took active roles within learned societies in the Midlands including Club Thirteen and The Lunar Society where he met Matthew Boulton who became a good friend. This particular barometer relates to a group of three instruments which are comprehensively described in Goodison, Nicholas English BAROMETERS 1680-1860 Part II Some Important Makers and Retailers pages 281-283. A fourth example was sold by Sothebys at their sale of the contents of Fawley House, 14th October 2003. The scale calibration appears to be arbitrary however roughly equates to three inches divided into twentieths.

Lot 148

A Victorian carved mahogany cistern tube stick barometer William Cox, Devonport, circa 1860. With stepped moulded pediment above glazed front angled ivory scale with vernier within ovolo panel moulded surround above slender trunk with mother of pearl vernier scale setting disc and Fahrenheit scale mercury thermometer with foliate carved crest and apron, the rounded base with radiating scroll panel carved circular cistern cover, 94cm high, B.C. Ref. 72. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube page 129. William Cox is recorded by Banfield as working in Devonport circa 1865-85, he also had a shop in Plymouth and supplied instruments to the Naval College.

Lot 184

A rare George III carved mahogany double tube or contra-barometer Unsigned, circa 1760. With foliate carved crest above tall rectangular herringbone engraved and punch stamped boxwood scale inscribed The Great Double Barometer to a decorative arch incised panel above visible syphon tube with bulb to top of mercury column and to cistern end above which is a coloured oil filled narrow bore extension alongside scale calibrated from 1 to 100 with sliding brass pointer, the whole within egg-and-dart carved moulded rectangular surround, 107cm high, B.C. Ref. 103. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube page 207 and described on page 206. The rear of the case is applied with a label suggesting a possible attribution to Dominico Sala who is recorded by Banfield as working in London circa 1780-1810. This particular instrument is calibrated 0-100 over a distance of 30 inches thus enabling a ten fold amplification of the normal 28-31 inch barometric scale. However, the oil will read lower on the scale with increase in pressure as the action of the barometer has been reversed, which is why this type of barometer is sometimes referred to as a contra-barometer.

Lot 185

A fine and rare George III inlaid mahogany double tube or contra-barometer Thomas Thomson, Edinburgh, circa 1805. The case with swan neck pediment above rectangular silvered scale engraved Double BAROMETER and signed T. Thomson EDINr to top with visible syphon tube with bulb to top of mercury column on the right and to cistern end on the left above which is an oil filled narrow bore extension tube with a scale calibrated to 80 upwards and 50 downwards around a zero point over a distance of 28 inches, annotated with the usual comments over this range and with sliding brass pointer, the centre with tall Farenheit scale alcohol thermometer, the whole within parquetry banded and cavetto moulded surround and behind glazed door with conforming inlay to edges, the base with inverted cavetto moulded foot, 105cm high, B.C. Ref. 105. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube page 209 and described on page 208. Thomas Thomson is recorded by Banfield as working from Cowgate, Edinburgh 1805-9. This particular instrument is calibrated from minus 50 to plus 80 over an approximate distance of 28 inches enabling a roughly nine fold amplification of the normal 28-31 inch barometric scale. However the calibrations appear to be arbitrary and as the oil level will drop with increase in atmospheric pressure, the barometer scale and associated comments essentially work in reverse, which is why this type of barometer is sometimes referred to as a contra-barometer. Banfield illustrates a similar instrument by Balthazar Knie and an almost exactly comparable example by B. Brown of Edinburgh is illustrated in Goodison, Nicholas English BAROMETERS 1680-1860 page 102 which Goodison suggests could have been supplied to Brown for retail by Knie.

Lot 189

A Victorian carved walnut marine sympiesometer Joseph Hughes, London, circa 1860. With foliate carved crest to the cavetto moulded cornice above glazed rectangular silvered scale applied with sulphuric acid and hydrogen gas filled syphon tube against a Fahrenheit temperature scale with a separate scale calibrated for the barometric inches adjusted via an ivory disc to the right-hand upright of the case, to the left is a Fahrenheit scale mercury thermometer above signature J. HUGHES, Ratcliff, London, Improved Sympiesometer with sector for the rotating recording disc beneath, the case with cushion moulded surround and conforming scroll carved apron to base, 60cm high, B.C. Ref. 110. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube page 218. Joseph Hughes is recorded by Banfield as working from Ratcliff Cross, London 1822-78. The sympiesometer was patented by Alexander Adie in 1818 and is essentially an improved version of Robert Hookes thermobarometer which he described in a paper presented to the Royal Society in 1668. The hydrogen gas in the syphon tube is affected by both temperature and pressure so the instrument has to be first calibrated by adjusting the moveable barometric scale against the temperature calibrations so that the pointer lines up with the temperature reading on the mercury thermometer to the left of the syphon tube before a reading can be taken from the top of the fluid level. The sympiesometer was conceived as an alternative to the mercury marine barometer as it was smaller thus more portable.

Lot 208

A mahogany Admiral Fitzroys Barometer M.E. Solomons, Dublin, circa 1890.

SOLOMONS, OPTICIAN, NASSAU ST. DUBLIN to left of cistern tube towards the base, in a simple glazed front rectangular mahogany case with cushion moulded surround, 89cm high, B.C. Ref. 117. Illustrated in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETERS Stick or Cistern Tube page 231. M.E. Solomons are recorded by Banfield as working from 19 Nassau Street, Dublin and were Opticians to the Royal Family.
