Item Details

Description

A fine and rare third quarter of the 18th century Chinoiserie decorated striking tavern clock
Thomas Grignion, Covent Garden
The 22 inch painted Roman and Arabic dial with gilt-heightened bezel framing the matching brass heart-shaped hands, over the gilt signature flanked by a pair of shaped 'ears' above the tear-drop trunk with removable central door (key lacking) decorated with chinoiserie scenes of figures in a landscape, to a moulded chisel foot, further heightened by gilt sprays of flowers to the sides and base. The movement united by five knopped pillars, both trains of five wheels in order to offer a duration of eight days, the going train with anchor escapement and counterbalanced hands (the hour counterbalanced by a shaped brass weight screwed directly to the hour wheel; the minute hand counterbalance by a brass shaped weight fitted to the arbor of the reverse wheel on the backplate), the strike train with snail on an independent star wheel mounted, acting on the bell above. 1.45m (4ft 9ins) high.
Footnotes:
Provenance:
The collection of Jacquelyn Nouveau, USA. At some stage in its life, this clock had been overpainted with a 'scumbled' finish, but expert restorers 'completed a wonderful forensic uncovering of the underlayer which was largely intact..' - see Gatto 'The Tavernicus Tavern Clock Archive' 2021, page 117.
