A rare Charles I first period brass lantern clock Anonymous but possibly by Richard Milbourne, London, circa 1620-30; the dial later inscribed for John Harford, Bath, 1658 The posted movement now with verge escapement regulated by short bob pendulum swinging outside the frame to the rear and Huygen s endless rope winding, the reversed strike train with countwheel planted to the rear and sounding the hours on a bell set above the top plate, the dial with elaborate rose centred vestigial alarm disc and sculpted iron hand enveloped by fine engraved infill incorporating winged angel mask over opposing lions mask inhabited stylised foliate scrolls issuing from cornucopiae and grotesque mask positioned just above six o'clock, within an applied Roman numeral chapter ring with simple wheatear half hour markers, the upper angles engraved John Harford, in Bath, 1658 over earlier leafy sprays matching those to the lower angles, the distinctive frame with one-piece column turned corner posts incorporating rounded blocks at the junctions with the top and bottom plates beneath symmetrical foliate strapwork pierced frets decorated with engraved detail to the front, integral multi-knopped ovoid vase-turned corner finials and domed bell bearer cast with pierced decoration between the limbs surmounted by a later substantial cup-and-cover vase finial, with brass side doors and on ring-turned ball feet, 32cm (12.5ins) high excluding later finial; 39.5cm (15.5ins) high overall; with an oak wall bracket and 19th century cylindrical brass cased weight embossed in the Arts and Crafts style with monogram DIW. The current lot can be directly compared to an example dated to circa 1610-1620 signed Richard Milborne fecit in holborne illustrated and described in Loomes, Brian LANTERN CLOCKS & Their Makers on pages 49-50 (Figures 5.10-11). In particular the engraving to the centre of the dial of the Milborne clock is almost identical to that of the present lot. In addition to this they also share the same pattern of frame casting and the unusual detail of having a lateral hammer stop applied to the top plate (removed from the current lot but evidence in the form of a vacant lot is still present). From this it would be reasonable to suggest that both originate from Milborne s workshop evidenced by the fact that the signed example is inscribed directly into the dial plate along with fecit. . Loomes also illustrates (Figures 5.2-9) another larger clock with dial engraved by the same hand and related frame castings which also could have originated from the same workshop. A detail worth noting is that this larger unsigned clock was made without an alarm, hence the centre is engraved with infill to occupy the space which would have been taken by a setting disc. This infill takes the form of a two-tier complex radial rosette almost identical to the one decorating the alarm disc of the current lot (suggesting that the disc itself is a rare original survivor). A third clock utilising the same frame castings and with dial engraving clearly by the same hand is illustrated in White, George English Lantern Clocks on page 82 (Figure II/94). This example was once in the Iden collection and is fitted with a non-original front fret bearing a signature for William Selwood hence is described by White as by an unknown maker. Although the angel and demon engraved decoration departs a little from the design seen on the others noted above it is clear that the similarities are strong enough to suggest that it was made in the same workshop (possibly that of Richard Milborne). From these observations it would seem reasonable to conclude that the present clock and the three clocks described above can be considered a series. Very little is known of Richard Milborne; Brian Loomes notes in Clockmakers of Britain 1286-1700 that A Richard Milborne and his wife, Mary had two children baptised at St. Clement Danes, Elizabeth and Mary in 1634 and 37 respectively. The identification of the current lot as being London first period work possibly from the workshop of Richard Milborne confirms that the engraved inscription for John Harford of Bath was added at a later date. John Harford is recorded by Loomes in Clockmakers of Britain 1286-1700 as born in Chippenham, Wiltshire in 1632. His uncle (on his maternal side) was the clockmaker John Snow of West Lavington and his father (John senior) may have been the clockmaker John Har(t)ford who was made a Free Brother of the Clockmakers Company in 1632 and Assistant in 1649. John Harford junior was apprenticed to his uncle John Snow from 1646 until 1653 and is thought to have worked in Bath from around 1654. He was described as a watchmaker in 1677 when his son (again of the same name) was apprenticed in London and is thought to have continued working until the end of the century. The presence of Harford s signature on the current lot would suggest that he probably acquired the clock and perhaps overhauled the mechanism prior to retailing it under his own name. On close examination the chapter ring appears to have been replaced at the same time of the execution of the signature. Indeed evidence in the form of extant earlier engraved decoration beneath indicates the original chapter ring was narrower whilst Harford's signature and date appear to have been executed to comfortably occupy the space above the current chapter ring.
