An unusual George II green japanned eight-day longcase clock with automaton, Stephen Rimbault, London, circa 1750, the 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, calendar aperture and arched nameplate engraved Step'n Rimbault, London to the matted centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with fleur-de-lys half hour markers and Arabic five minutes to outer track, with pierced steel hands and applied twin bird and urn cast spandrels to angles beneath arch centred with a silvered disc engraved with a disgruntled face incorporating 'rocking eye' automaton and flanked by dolphin cast mounts, in a green japanned Chinoiserie decorated case with generous cavetto cornice and scroll pierced fret over gilt floral trail painted glazed dial surround flanked by three-quarter columns and rectangular side windows to hood, the trunk with gilt eagle painted throat moulding over break-arch door decorated in raised polychrome and gilt with Oriental figures within a trellis garden landscape, the surround with hatch ground borders incorporating figural medallions to upper quadrants, the sides painted with birds in flight and the base decorated to match the trunk door over moulded skirt, 229cm (90ins) high Stephen Rimbault is recorded in Baillie, G.H. 'Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World' as working 1744-88. A portrait of him by Johan Zoffany (dating to 1864) hangs in the Tate Gallery, London where he is described as a famous clock maker of Huguenot descent, particularly noted for his 'twelve-tuned Dutchmen', clocks which played twelve tunes, with moving figures in front of decorated backgrounds. He did business in Great Andrew's Street, St Giles.The 'rocking eye' automaton within the arch of the dial of the current lot is an unusual and particularly pleasing feature of the current lot as is the mellow, aged decoration to the case. Condition Report: Movement is in clean working condition with no visible evidence of alteration or significant repairs or replacements. The dial is in fine clean condition with correct operation of the automaton. The movement and dial rest on an old, probably original, seatboard onto uprights of the case which show no obvious evidence of alteration although it would appear that new blocks have fitted to the inside of the uprights to offer additional bracing with some re-colouring with red wash to match the old internal surface. The fact that some work has been done to this area of the case means that we cannot offer categorical assurances that the movement and dial belong to the case but the movement and dial and case are perfectly suited both in age and style and the dial is a perfect fit to the mask of the case.The top board of the hood appears to be a replacement otherwise the case appears to have survived in fine original condition retaining its original finish which has now mellowed to exhibit a particularly pleasing patinated appearance (commensurate with its age) with only minimal retouchiong/conservation work having been done to preserve this appearance. The structure of the case is sound although there is some historic internal bracing to the backboard at the base. Otherwise faults are very much limited to minor historic bumps, scuffs, shrinkage and wear to be expected in a case of this age.Clock is complete with pendulum, two weights, winder and case key. Condition Report Disclaimer

A set of four Iberian exotic hardwood and embossed leather upholstered chairs, probably 18th or early 19th century, each shaped high back decorated with figures and peacocks around a flowering urn, the tapering rectangular seat centred by a flowerhead motif, above a pierced floral scroll apron, on spirally turned legs and peripheral stretchers, terminating in turned bun feet, each approximately 117cm high, 45cm wide, 40cm deep

A North Italian, probably Venetian, polychrome painted terracotta model of Balthazar, 18th century, the turbaned King portrayed standing in elaborate costume and drapery, holding a box of myrrh, flanked by an attendant carrying an urn, on a naturalistically modelled rockwork base, 32cm high, 22cm wideThe subject's princely costume and attributes of a casket and urn suggest this statuette represents St Balthazar, one of the three magi, who is often depicted as a black king.The medium of terracotta, both for artists' models and independent works, rose to popularity among sculptors and connoisseurs during the 18th century. The tactile, pliable quality of the material was by some considered to convey the artist's 'fire' and talent in a more direct way than marble could. The medium proved particularly popular for small-scale portrait and genre sculpture, as is the case with the present lot. Statuettes of this kind with elaborate costume and vibrant polychromy were often produced in Venice, note for example the 18th century models of characters from the Commedia dell'Arte in the collection of the the Museo della Scala in Milan.Further literature: in relation to the development of small-scale terracotta sculpture, see J. Draper and G. Scherf, Playing with Fire: European Terracotta Models, 1740-1840, Metropolitan Museum, 2003For a similar single figure model of King Balthazar also portrayed carrying a box of myrrh, see Sotheby's Paris, 17 June 2015, lot 191 (EUR 3000).Condition Report: The model bears the usual minor marks, knocks and scuffs overall consistent with age, and some wear to the polychromy.Some minor chips and losses, including to the tip of the attendant's sword as well as the top of his head and his nose, and the back of the taller figure. Possible repainting to the boots.There is a circular aperture to the rear of the taller figure. The base is a naturally irregular shape and does not sit entirely flush when placed on a flat surface, though it is entirely stable.Condition Report Disclaimer

A pair of Breche Violette and gilt metal mounted ornamental urns in Louis XVI style, 20th century, the ovoid and domed bodies with festoons and rams' masks, on waisted socles and square section bases, 55cm high, 28cm wideCondition Report: The urns bear the usual minor marks, knocks and scuffs overall consistent with age and use, and the gilding is a little rubbed.The marble is naturally veined, so there are irregularities and inclusions overall. There is a small area of repair/filling to one of the integral covers, and a corner of the base of that urn. The other also has a small area of restoration to the socle and base. Each of these small restorations appear to have been quite sympathetically executed.Small chips and losses to one or two of the base corners.Overall these urns are in presentable condition.Condition Report Disclaimer
