A fine Charles II lantern clock, Richard Ames, London, circa 1680. The posted countwheel bell-striking movement with verge escapement and pendulum swinging within the frame of the clock between the trains and additional passing half-hour strike mounted behind the dial, the dial engraved with signature Richard Ames Neere St. Andrews Church in Holburn fecit in a curve towards the upper margin of the dial centre and with foliate tulip decoration to lower margin, with original iron hand and applied narrow Roman numeral chapter ring with wheatear half hour markers, the standard London third period `Lothbury` frame with column turned posts beneath dolphin engraved and pierced frets, vase turned finials and domed bell bearer, the side doors cut with slots to allow for the swing of the arrow shaped centre pendulum, the rear with iron hanging loop, on ball feet, (alarm removed), 38cm (15ins) high. Richard Ames is recorded in Loomes, Brian The Early CLOCKMAKERS of Great Britain as being born circa 1634, he was apprenticed to Peter Closon in 1648/9 and gaining his Freedom of the Clockmakers` Company in 1656/7. He was made Assistant in 1669, Warden 1676-81 and was elected master in September 1682 only to die the following month. His widow Katherine perhaps assisted by their son, William, continued the business until at least 1692. He had many apprentices, the most significant of which perhaps being John Ebsworth (Freed Apr. 1665) who became a fine maker of lantern clocks in his own right. The work of Richard Ames is discussed in Loomes, Brian LANTERN CLOCKS & Their Makers pages 127-134 where two very similar clocks to the current lot are comprehensively described and illustrated (figs. 9.5-11). All of these three examples share the same unusual features (passing half-hour strike and separately wound trains), and can be compared to another illustrated in Darken, Jeff and Hooper, John English 30 Hour Clocks pages 47-50 which only differs in not having passing half-hour strike.
Lot 138
A brass miniature lantern timepiece with alarm, Unsigned, mid to late 17th century.

The current lot can be closely compared to an example bearing the inscription `William Bowyer London` to the front fret sold at Christie`s Amsterdam sale of The P.C. Spaans Collection of Important Clocks 19th December 2007 lot 444.
Lot 139
A Queen Anne brass lantern clock, Thomas Reeve, Harlstone, early 18th century. The posted countwheel bell-striking movement with anchor escapement and dial signed Tho. Reeve, Harlstone to the symmetrical foliate scroll engraved centre within an applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised fleur-de-lys half hour markers and original steel hand, with foliate pierced frets and vase turned finials beneath domed bell bearer above, with brass side doors, rear hanging hoop and spurs to the turned ball feet, 40cm (16.75ins) high. Thomas Reeve appears to be unrecorded, however another clock by him stylistically dated to around 1690 is illustrated in Loomes, Brian LANTERN CLOCKS & Their Makers page 248 where he is noted as being a goldsmith. The style of the engraving to the dial centre can be closely compared to an example by Thomas Moore of Ipswich illustrated by Loomes on page 244, suggesting that the current lot can be stylistically dated to around 1710.
Lot 140
A Queen Anne `wing` lantern clock, John Crucefix, London, early 18th century. The posted countwheel bell-striking movement now with pin-wheel escapement with adjustable pallets, the dial engraved with signature John Crucefix, London within a band of foliate scrolls with iron hand and applied Roman numeral chapter ring with star half hour markers, the frame with column turned posts beneath foliate engraved and pierced frets, vase turned finials and domed bell bearer, the side doors fitted with shaped pendulum projections capped with further foliate pierced and engraved frets, the rear with iron hanging loop above iron backplate fitted with spurs, on ball feet, (lacking pendulum and weight), 35.5cm (14ins) high.

A similar example was sold in our Bristol, Apsley Road saleroom 2nd November 2004 lot 657.
Lot 141
A rare William III brass and iron lantern clock, Unsigned but probably by Richard Breckell, Holmes, Lancashire, late 17th century. The posted countwheel bell-striking movement with anchor escapement and iron movement plates, the dial engraved with a central five-petal rose within a loosely symmetrical tulip ground, with iron hand and applied narrow Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised sword hilt half hour markers, the frame with square section iron pillars incorporating square caps and bases beneath foliate engraved and pierced frets, vase turned finials and domed bell bearer, the rear with iron hanging loop above iron backplate fitted with spurs, on ball feet (dial with cracks and losses to corners), 34cm (13.5ins) high. This highly individual and interesting lantern clock can be directly compared to and example inscribed Richard Breckell, Holmes Fecit illustrated and described in Loomes Brian ENGLISH LANTERN CLOCKS & Their Makers pages 309-11. Both examples share use of square section iron pillars and movement plates as well as a thin brass dial plate and traditionally fitted bell-bearer. The current lot also demonstrates a few further idiosyncracies, for example the use of separate winding clicks for the trains (rather than Huygens endless rope winding), resulting in the bell hammer being placed on the right hand side of the movement. Other features such as the finial castings which appear to be unique, and the backcock which is similar to those found on clocks by John Sanderson of Wigton are also noteworthy.
