A George III mahogany table clock with pull-quarter repeat on six bells... A George III mahogany table clock with pull-quarter repeat on six bells William Glover, Worcester, circa 1780 The five pillar twin fusee bell striking movement with pull-quarter repeat sounding on a graduated nest of six bells and verge escapement regulated by lenticular bob pendulum with pivoted rise/fall regulation to suspension, the backplate engraved with intense symmetrical foliate strapwork, the 7 inch brass break-arch dial with shaped false bob and calendar apertures to the Ho-Ho bird and oriental mask inhabited rococo scroll engraved centre within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes to outer track, with pierced blued steel hands and applied rococo scroll cast spandrels to angles beneath twin subsidiary Strike/Silent selection and regulation dials set within a foliate scroll engraved field and incorporating a recessed shaped signature plate engraved William Glover, Worcester to arch, the bell top case with hinged brass carrying handle and four pineapple finials to superstructure over front door with brass fillet inset glazed dial aperture and scroll pierced upper quadrant frets, the sides with full-height arched glazed apertures and the rear with conforming break-arch glazed rectangular door incorporating further upper quadrant frets and set within the frame of the case, on cavetto moulded skirt base with brass bracket feet, 44.5 (17.5ins) high excluding handle. A William Glover is recorded in Baillie, G. H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as working in Worcester from 1751 until his retirement in 1758. Another with the same name (believed to be a nephew) is also recorded as coming from London to Worcester in 1758; he opened a shop in Tewkesbury in 1764 and worked until at least 1767. Finally Baillie also notes a third record of a William Glover Working in Worcester 1764-71 who also opened a shop in Tetbury in 1764, it is possible that this is a record of the same nephew. The current lot is very much in the London style but with perhaps a little more engraved decoration than would normally be found on a London clock - this is perhaps to be expected for a clock made in the provinces by a maker trained in the capital.
