J. Thompson of Nottingham appears not to be recorded in the usual sources however it is likely that he is a related to John (IV) Thompson who is recorded in Clifton, Gloria Directory of British Scientific Instrument Makers 1550-1851 as working in Nottingham 1835-44.The current lot is notable in being a rarely early example of its type most likely being made in the 1790's. Early features include the wooden as well as the truncated design of the top of the case.Condition Report: The tube is filled with no apparent airlocks and is currently plugged for transport. The mechanism is complete and in working condition however will require setting up. The register is in good condition with some light spotting/discolouration to the silvering.

A GEORGE III FIGURED MAHOGANY BALLOON-SHAPED BRACKET CLOCK WITH WALL BRACKETUnsigned, circa 1800The circular five pillar twin fuse bell striking movement with 7 inch diameter plates and anchor escapement regulated by 12.5 inch lenticular bob pendulum, the 8 inch circular cream painted convex Roman numeral dial with Arabic five minutes to outer track and pierced gilt brass hands set behind hinged cast brass cavetto moulded convex-glazed hinged bezel, the waisted case with brass flambeau urn finial to the concave-sided upstand over cast brass rosette decorated diamond grille sound frets and line-bordered crossbanded fascia incorporating shaped panel beneath the dial, the sides with conforming flame-figured veneers and hinged brass carrying handles and the rear with shaped glazed door following the outline of the case, on cavetto moulded skirt base with cast brass ogee bracket feet; with original wall bracket of concave form with cavetto moulded edge to the table and terminating with a brass fillet ogee-shaped foot.The clock 64cm (25.5ins) high, 33cm (13ins) wide, 22cm (8.75ins) deep; the wall bracket 32cm (12.5ins) high.Condition Report: The movement is in relatively clean working condition with no visible evidence of alteration of significant replacements. There are two spare holes to the lower edge of the backplate for a pendulum securing bracket which is no longer present. The dial finish appears original but has overall wear/patination. The numerals are worn but still legible and have been 'strengthened' at some point, there is general concentric light surface scratching and some chipping towards the edges. The minute hand has been repaired. The case is generally in good original condition with nice old surface and patination including the brass mounts which are fairly heavily tarnished/discoloured. The superstructure is lacking the fret at the rear and the front is missing a length of edge stringing beneath the dial to the left hand side. Interenally the base board has two spare holes most likely for a pendulum securing latch which is no longer present. Faults are otherwise very much limited to minor shrinkage cracking and historic bumps and scuffs commensurate with age and use. The bracket is in very similar condition with the only significant fault being a section of brass fillet moulding missing from the left hand side at the base.Clock has pendulum (suspension spring is broken and bob is loose), winder and case key.

A FINE GEORGE III MAHOGANY EIGHT-DAY LONGCASE CLOCKJohn Ellicott, London, circa 1760The five pillar rack and bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by seconds pendulum, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with subsidiary seconds dial and calendar aperture to the matted centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes to outer track and signed John, Ellicott, Lon,don to lower margin, with scroll-pierced steel hands and fine crisply cast rococo scroll cast spandrels to angles beneath arch with silvered Strike/Silent selection dial flanked by dolphin cast mounts, the case with concave sided 'pagoda' upstand adorned with brass flambeau urn finials and with shaped fretwork panel to fascia over cavetto moulded break-arch cornice and hinged glazed dial aperture flanked by brass stop-fluted columns, the sides with rectangular windows and conforming quarter columns set against bargeboards at the rear, the trunk with concave throat moulding over solid mahogany break-arch door applied with complex mouldings to edges, the base with concave top mouldings over rectangular raised panel and moulded double skirt.240cm (94.5ins) high excluding finials, 53.5ins (21ins) wide, 27cm (10.5ins) deep. John Ellicott F.R.S. is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as born 1706 to John Ellicott senior, a Cornish clockmaker who had gained his Freedom of the Clockmakers' Company in 1696 and died 1733. John junior worked from Swithin's Alley, Royal Exchange, London and was elected member of the Royal Society in 1738. He published works on horology in 1739 and 1753 and is particularly noted for the development of the cylinder escapement and a form of compensated pendulum; he also maintained a private observatory at his home in Hackney. John Ellicott was later appointed as Clockmaker to George III, and took his son, Edward into partnership in 1760 which lasted until his death in 1772. The present clock is notable in that it has survived in fine original condition and is very much a textbook example of its type made by one of the leading English horologists of the 18th century.Condition Report: Movement is complete and in clean working condition having been recently serviced and there is no evidence of alteration or significant replacements. The dial is in good clean condition with only minor discolouration/spotting to the silvered finishes in places; the hands appear original and undamaged. The movement retains what appears to be the original seatboard which rests on the directly onto the case uprights (cheeks) which have historic nail holes corresponding to those in the seatboard which serve to confirm that the movement and dial are most likely original to the case. The case is in fine original condition. The shaped fretwork panel to the hood is a replacement and two of the small pads that support the finials are a loose (simply require re-gluing) otherwise faults are very much limited to very minor historic bumps, scuffs and other age related blemishes. The patination/colour is notable in its originality.Clock is complete with pendulum, pair of brass-cased weights, case key and winder. Condition Report Disclaimer
