Item Details

Description

A Swiss Renaissance iron chamber clock Unsigned, circa 1600 The two train weight-driven movement with verge and balance wheel escapement contained within the frame and single arbor warnless countwheel striking released via nag's head lifting against a pin fitted to the rim of the going train greatwheel and with overlift provided by a shaped cam cut with a slot for locking, both trains pivoted between iron vertical bars which locate via tenons into slots cut into a horizontal strip at the base, the top secured with another strip terminating with angled ends forged with pierced tenons passing through slots in the uprights and secured by wedges, the iron box-form case with a single lugged bell supported within domed bearer decorated with forged iron flower buds, the front with visible hour wheel and gilt painted arrow-shaped hand reading against a cream painted chapter ring with Gothic Roman numerals within upper and lower borders polychrome painted with symmetrical bird inhabited foliate scrolls on a chocolate brown ground beneath moulded gilt band and panel painted with an owl within conforming field, the sides with hinged doors secured by sprung clasps and painted with conforming large floral sprays, the rear with forged hanging hoop and spurs, (escapement restored, case decoration refreshed), 26.5cm (10.5ins) high. The general construction and layout of the current lot can be directly compared to a spring-driven example illustrated in Bassermann-Jordan, Ernst von THE BOOK OF OLD CLOCKS AND WATCHES (English version translated by H. Alan Lloyd) on page 203 which is described as probably made in Zurich about 1630-40. The basic construction of the movement frame (formed essentially as a vertical rectangular loop around the movement) has its roots in the earliest form of domestic striking clock and can be directly compared with a clock dating to around 1500 illustrated in Muhle, Richard and Vogel, Horand M. Alte Uhren (Verlag Georg D.W. Callway, Munchen 1976) on page 152 (figure 256). IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS Movements, dials and cases: movements and dials are described as relating to the cases in which they are housed in one of the following three ways: the case.... we are of the opinion that the movement and dial started life in the current case. in a case we are of the opinion that the movement and dial are in a case of correct period and type (and may well be original to the movement and dial), however there is evidence to suggest that they may not have started out life together. now in a case we are of the opinion that the movement and dial are no longer in the original case or one of correct period and/or type. Pendulums, weights, winding and case keys: unless specifically indicated otherwise in the catalogue description it can be assumed that all clocks with cases are sold with the requisite pendulum and correct number of weights (where appropriate), however we cannot guarantee that they are original to the clock. We do not indicate in the catalogue description whether winding or case keys are present with any specific clock. As many clocks are consigned without keys please check with the department to establish whether they are present or not prior to bidding. Condition: due to the mechanical nature of clocks and the fact that most are of great age we cannot offer any guarantee as to whether they are in working order or free from major faults or restoration. Although we endeavour to catalogue items in a fair and informed manner, omission of any comments or observations regarding the condition or originality of a clock in the description does not necessarily indicate that it is free from significant faults, restoration or is in working condition. We would strongly advise any prospective purchaser to view the item in person or request a condition report and/or further images prior to bidding. Measurements: dial measurements are given in inches, other dimensions such as height are given in centimetres and inches. The measurement given for the height of a longcase clock excludes any removable finials in order to provide an approximate minimum ceiling height in which the clock can be accommodated.
