Item Details

Description

DANIEL OYSTER (READING, BERKS CO., PENNSYLVANIA, 1767-1845) CHIPPENDALE CARVED WALNUT TALL-CASE CLOCK, eight-day brass works, painted sheet-iron dial with Arabic chapter ring and outer track, and calendar wheel, flanked by floral corner devices, signed "Daniel Oyster / Reading" at center, polychrome moon phase dial with castle and sailing ship above. The case hood featuring a bold cove-molded broken-arch pediment terminating in fluted rosettes, original turned finials, tombstone side lights, and tombstone door flanked by full, finely-turned columns front and back; the case featuring a tombstone waist door with finely-carved fan to upper edge, flanked by fluted quarter columns, the base featuring an applied tombstone panel flanked by fluted quarter columns, the whole raised on an applied molded-ogee bracket-foot base. Poplar secondary wood. Outstanding original dry surface with excellent patina. Original glass, hinges, lock, and escutcheon. Retains original winding key, weights, pendulum, and case key. Inscriptions to case interior including period name in chalk to upper backboard, and tacked-on note inscribed "Davis Lapp / West Chester / Intersection / [initials]". Circa 1795. 97" HOA.
Outstanding original condition, three small cracks to hood door glass, no other noticeable issues. Ted said this was running the last time he wound it several years ago (See catalogue guarantee).
Provenance: The collection of the late Theodore "Ted" and Alvina Breckel, Oley, PA and Winnetka, IL.
Pook & Pook, Inc., 10/1/2010, lot 354.
Ex-collection of Charming Forge, Womelsdorf, PA.
Catalogue Note: Daniel Oyster (1767-1845) was a prolific clockmaker whose career spanned several decades. In 1792, Oyster married Catharina Rose, the sister of important Berks Co., Pennsylvania clockmaker, Daniel Rose, a hugely influential figure in Oyster's career. The present clock, its case in a classic Chippendale style, likely dates from this early period when Oyster was working in Reading.
