Lot 308
A complete cast copper-alloy watch winder of probable late 18th to early 19th century date, perhaps c. 1770-1820. The main body of the object is hexagonal in plan, a suspension loop projecting from its apex and a solid circular-sectioned winding element visible at its base. The edges of the main body demonstrate a raised internal border, a different design visible on both sides. On one face, this consists a Neo-Classical draped urn, while on the opposing panel is the rendition of a male shoulder-length bust, by his beard and dress probably intended as a stereotypical depiction of a Turk. Preserved in extremely good condition with a chocolatey brown patina. Length: 40mm. Provenance: from the collection of a metal detectorist.

Instead of forming candlesticks from several solid cast sections, founders took to casting stems in two thin, vertical halves, which were then soldered together. This allowed for more intricate and decorative designs often modelled on examples in silver.Several very similar pairs were also sold at Christie's New York, 'Property from the Collection of Benjamin F.
