A fine Charles II ebony table clock. John Knibb, Oxford, of ‘phase III’ design circa 1685-90. The fully latched twin fusee movement with typical Knibb pattern baluster turned pillars, verge escapement and striking the hours on a bell via a crossed-out numbered countwheel mounted to the rear of the movement, the backplate engraved with tulips and symmetrical scrolling foliage incorporating signature John Knibb, Oxon Fecit in a downward curve toward the lower margin, the 7 inch square gilt brass dial with calendar aperture to the finely matted centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with trident half hour markers and Arabic five minutes within the narrow outer track, with fine sculpted blued steel hands and angles applied with gilt winged cherub head spandrels with engraved repeat signature to lower margin, the ebony veneered case with typical Knibb pattern foliate-bud tied hinged gilt brass carrying handle to the domed caddy surmount above moulded cornice and foliate scroll pierced lozenge sound fret to the upper rail of the front door, the uprights with cherub head and scroll cast gilt mounts (the left hand pivoted to reveal keyhole), the sides with rectangular side windows, on moulded shallow skirt base, 33cm (15ins) high excluding handle; with a foliate engraved and pierced brass winding key. John Knibb was born in 1650 and was apprenticed to his older brother, Joseph, in around 1664. When Joseph moved to London in 1670 to set up business (presumably in the workshop inherited from his uncle, Samuel) John, his younger brother, took on the Oxford workshop gaining the Freedom of the city on payment of a fine in 1673. Joseph Knibb retired in 1697 selling up most of his workshop before moving to Hanslop, Buckinghamshire where he made a few clocks prior to his death in 1711. John Knibb became a high profile figure within the City of Oxford twice becoming Mayor, he continued in business until his death in 1722. Due to the comparative rarity of clocks signed by John Knibb it has been suggested that his workshop may have generally served to supply Joseph’s larger concern in London. The strong similarities between John’s best work and those signed by Joseph would certainly support this view. However it is also clear that John was a high profile tradesman in the City of Oxford who trained no less than ten apprentices, therefore it is perhaps more likely that, although the two workshops were closely connected, they generally worked separately to supply clocks to differing groups of clients. The current lot is an quintessential example of a Knibb ‘phase III’ table clock with the movement possessing many typical features including distinctive baluster-turned movement pillars, crossed-out countwheel, signature in a downward curve to the foliate engraved backplate and finely sculpted blued steel hands. The case with its shouldered tied foliate-bud gilt brass handle, cornice with mouldings to underside only and winged cherub head mounts to the front door is also unmistakably Knibb in its design and detailing. All these details can be directly compared with an example by John Knibb of Oxford which sold at Christie’s King Street Magnificent Clocks 15th September 2004, Lot 38 for £44,212

After Emile Coriolan Hippolyte Guillemin (1841-1907) French, a pair of bronze figures of gladiators depicting the retiarius and the murmillo, each bearing signature to the oval stepped base, (sword missing), 32cm high. (2). In Roman gladiatorial conquests, the retiarius or "Fisherman" was armed with a weighted net, trident and dagger and no armour, while the murmillo carried a shield and sword and was dressed in protective armour. Despite the seeming inequality in weaponry and protection, the odds were generally in favour of the retiarius. Guillemin exhibited the originals of these at the Paris Salon in 1872.
