Lot 1219

A brass and copper Victorian mantel clock, flanked on either side with ornate columns. Height 39 cm, width 22 cm, depth 14.5 cm.The movement winds on both trains.  It appears to be ticking away.  When the hands are advanced the clock does strike, however this is continuous, and it does not stop.  The strike hammer is missing the gong, but this should easily adjust.  The pendulum is present, and we have a key which is probably not original.  The case is complete with no losses, however the brasswork is generally tarnished and there is a lot of dust and dirt particularly around the columns and copper sections. The face is generally dirty and there are some minor losses to the paint work on the Arabic numerals.  Both doors are original and present.

Y A FRENCH LOUIS PHILIPPE ROSEWOOD CASED CARRIAGE CLOCKHENRY MARC, PARIS, CIRCA 1845The rectangular eight-day two train countwheel bell striking movement with gilt Jules type two-tier platform lever escapement regulated by helical sprung split bimetallic balance with wedge-shaped timing weights, the backplate stamped with H'Y MARC, PARIS oval trademark to centre over serial number 18752, the rectangular white enamel Roman numeral dial with blued steel moon hands, inscribed H'Y MARC, A PARIS to lower margin and set within geometric engraved gilt brass canted surround, the bevel glazed rosewood case with hinged brass baton carrying handle over rectangular top glass and ripple moulded cornice incorporating rounded angles, the front and sides with conforming glazed apertures and the rear with hinged door set within the frame of the case, on elaborate two-tier ripple moulded skirt base with shallow pad feet.21cm (8.25ins) high with handle down, 14.5cm (5.75ins) wide, 11cm (4.25ins) deep. Henry Marc is noted in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS Their history and development as probably a retailer of various mantel and other small clocks and refers to a relatively early carriage clock (number 26886) supplied to Marc by Japy Freres. However the movement of the present clock can be closely compared to that of a clock by Jules illustrated by Allix and Bonnert on page 73 (Plates 11/47-48), this would strongly suggest that the mechanism for the current clock was most probably supplied by Jules. Condition Report: Movement is somewhat dirty/discoloured but will run and strike albeit lazily hence a clean/service is required. There is no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The dial has a filled chip to the upper left-hand corner otherwise appears free form visible defects. The case is in sound condition but shows evidence of having 'come apart' at the junction between the glazed sections and the base. Hence the case has been re-glued and pinned at this point hence some cracks to the veneers and slight surplus glue are visible. The right-hand side glass has a very small chip to the front lower corner (only visible on very close examination) otherwise glasses appear free from visible damage. Faults to the case are otherwise limited to minor bumps, scuffs, shrinkage and wear commensurate with age and use.Clock is complete with a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

The business was continued by his successors forming the partnerships 'Dwerrihouse and Carter' (1802-23); 'Dwerrihouse, Carter and Son' (1805-15); 'Dwerrihouse, Carter and Company' (1825); 'Dwerrihouse and Ogston' (1836) and 'Dwerrihouse Ogston and Bell' (circa 1840).  Condition Report: Movement is in reasonably clean working order, and appears complete and original with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements.

The front and rear doors have slight veneer shrinkcage cracking and wear to the key escutcheon aperture for the front door (to the left and side) has been repaired by letting-in a small patch cut with a keyhole. Faults to the case are otherwise very much limited to minor bumps, scuffs, scratches, minimal shrinkage and other age-related blemishes. The bracket is in good condition commensurate to the case.Clock is complete with a case key and winder. Condition Report Disclaimer

He is best known for his 'mysterieuse' figural clock with glass pendulum, this takes the form of a woman holding pendulum in her outstretched hand and arm over a marble base containing the clock below.

He was apprenticed to Reid and Auld of Edinburgh and was admitted to the Clockmaker's Company as a Free Brother in 1822. Around this time McCabe entered into a short-lived partnership with Strahan (probably Charles who gained his freedom of the Clockmaker's Company in 1815). From 1826 James McCabe managed the business alone from 97 Cornhill until 1838 when he was forced to temporarily relocate to 32 Cornhill due to a major fire at the Royal Exchange. It was at this time (1825-43) that Thomas Cole worked for McCabe before setting up his own to produce distinctive and highly decorative timepieces in his own unmistakable style. The business was subsequently continued by Robert Jeremy until his retirement in 1883.From a list of serial numbers found of bracket and mantel clocks provided in Nicholls, Andrew English Bracket and Mantel Clocks (pages 66-67) the present lot would appear to date to around 1842. Condition Report: Movement is in relatively clean working condition although a precautionary gentle clean/service may be advisable. The bell is a replacement and the pendulum holdfast securing thumbscrew is missing otherwise movement appears complete with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The dial has a small scratch to the centre and overall noticeable oxidation to the silvering giving a pleasing mellow appearance otherwise is in fine original condition.
