  • A particularly elegant and interesting late eighteenth-century musical bracket clock by the celebrated London maker Francis Perigal III, in a beautifully proportioned mahogany case richly mounted with gilt brass ormolu. The arched case is surmounted by a gilt brass urn finial and adorned throughout with finely cast rococo mounts, raised on scrolling bracket feet with pierced sound frets. The case retains both front and rear glazed doors, allowing the highly decorative movement to be viewed. The superb arched dial is framed by an elaborate blue, green and gilt decorated arch and is richly embellished with finely executed champlevé enamel panels on a solid silver ground, incorporating subsidiary dials for chime/silent and musical-tune selection. The main enamel dial is signed Perigal, London and fitted with elegant pierced gilt hands. The substantial, fully engraved brass movement, signed Francis Perigal, London, is of particularly fine quality. It is fitted with a musical train playing a choice of four tunes on a nest of eleven bells, and sounding once on the hour, every hour, a particularly desirable feature, as many musical clocks play only at three-hour intervals. The clock also strikes the hours on a separate bell. The backplate is beautifully engraved with scrolling foliage, and the movement retains its original verge escapement and pendulum. The movement and case together demonstrate the quality and refinement associated with Perigal, one of the most respected horological dynasties working in eighteenth-century London. The Perigal family were among the most eminent clock and watchmakers of the Georgian period, working from the Royal Exchange and later New Bond Street, and supplying timepieces of the highest quality to both domestic and export markets. Clocks by Francis Perigal are increasingly sought after by collectors for their mechanical sophistication, distinctive design, and historical importance within English horology. An excellent and decorative example of an important London maker’s work. Serviced and guaranteed for 3 years. Height: 19 ¾” or 50 cm CIRCA.1790 Provenance: Private collection, UK

  • French Automata Lighthouse Clock A wonderful 19th-century novelty clock by Andre Romain Guilmet of Paris, who was famous for producing various industrial-themed mantel clocks. 8-day timepiece movement that is wound through the opening bezel, which also facilitates hand adjustment. Silvered dial with painted Roman numerals, and original matching blued steel hands. At the base of the lighthouse, there is a second movement that drives the rotating top of the lighthouse for a few hours, revealing an aneroid barometer with a similar silvered dial that opposes the clock. To the sides of the drum are two thermometers, one reading Fahrenheit and the other Centigrade, both with silvered register plates. The case is of all-brass construction sitting on a black slate base. These clocks appear on the market with different surface finishes, some gilded, silver-plated, silvered, and some of natural brass. This example shows no evidence of ever being gilded or silver plated, and so the case has been lightly polished and then lacquered to protect from fingerprints. The drum has been silvered, which is in keeping with traces of the original silvering. C.1885 Height: 17” 43.5cm £ 9,500
