About the Item

A superb early 18th century eight-day Queen Anne longcase clock by the famous maker Christopher Gould, circa 1705-1710. The exquisite burr walnut veneered oak case is of the highest quality, having a square hood and a trunk door framed with walnut D-mouldings. The hood has fine sound frets and is flanked by ebonised columns with gilt wooden capitals and bases. It has viewing windows to the sides. The base, which is in perfect harmony with the hood, has shallow stepped mouldings, typical of the period and a plinth at the bottom. The eight-day movement has going and striking trains and is in remarkably original state. The going train has anchor escapement with seconds pendulum, while the striking is regulated by an inside count wheel. The beautifully executed 12-inch brass dial has a silvered chapter ring, a subsidiary seconds ring under the XII and finely engraved date aperture above the VI in the matted centre. The chapter ring has the classic division into Roman numerals with fine half-hour markers, an inner track with quarter-hour divisions, which adds to its elegance, and Arabic five-minute divisions on the outside. It is signed along the bottom Chr Gould London. The time is indicated by a fine pair of period blued-steel hands, the hour hand richly pierced. The winding holes are ringed whilst the corners are embellished by superb putti-and-crown spandrels. The maker Christopher Gould was made a free Brother in the Clockmakers' Company in1682 and referred to as great clockmaker. Strangely enough, it is not known to whom he was apprenticed, but it must have been one of the most eminent makers of the time, as Gould became a prolific and outstanding maker. He was married to Mary Rand in 1684, a second time in1702, to Jane Cosham. The couple had several children. Gould had a great number of apprentices. Apart from longcase clocks, for which he was most famous, he also made bracket clocks, lantern clocks, even for the Turkish market, hooded clocks and watches. He probably died in 1718. Dimensions: Height 222 cm Width 45 cm (at the widest point on the hood mouldings) Depth 25 cm.

The 10.5ft 18th Century George I Bur/Burl Walnut Month Longcase Clock by

By James Markwick

Located in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

This is, without doubt, the largest and most impressive English longcase/grandfather clock we have ever encountered, standing at three meters twenty (10.5ft/321cm) and it is quite possibly the largest from the entire 18th century. The golden age. As you might expect, no expense was spared when this clock was commissioned circa 1710-1720, using only the very finest cuts of burr/burl walnut to adorn the case and cross-grain mouldings throughout, leading up to the sensational month going, quarter chiming movement by James Markwick, London. Once wound, the clock will run for one month, chiming the quarters on six bells...

18th Century Queen Anne Burr Walnut Double Dome Bureau Bookcase

Located in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

A Fine and Rare Three-Part George I Burr Walnut Bureau Bookcase Circa 1720-1730 – England Attributed to Coxed and Woster (1700-1735) This exceptional George I burr walnut bureau bookcase represents the finest English craftsmanship of the early 18th century, attributed to the renowned cabinetmaking partnership of Coxed and Woster. Meticulously constructed in three sections, the chest, bureau, and bookcase, it reflects both practicality and elegance, showcasing premium burr veneers and outstanding period details. Surmounted by a refined cavetto moulded cornice, the bookcase features a pair of inset moulded and shaped mirrored doors, enhancing its grandeur and light-reflecting elegance. The doors reveal double D-moulded shelves, fitted for functional and decorative display. At the base of each mirrored door, retractable candle slides provide both practicality and historical charm. The fall-front bureau is adorned with a cross-grain ogee-moulded bookrest, supported by retractable lopers. It includes two short oak-lined, feather-banded drawers fitted with their original gilt-brass ring-pull handles, oval escutcheons, and locks. When opened, the fall reveals what appears to be the original inset leather writing surface, accompanied by a beautifully arranged interior of pigeonholes and a series of small and long feather-banded drawers with original knobs. A central feather-banded cupboard, flanked by Tuscan columns, conceals three hidden drawers, exemplifying both craftsmanship and ingenuity. The chest, with its ovolo waist moulding, is raised on sturdy ball and bracket feet, providing balance and visual strength. It features three graduating oak-lined, feather-banded drawers, retaining their original gilt-brass handles, escutcheons, and locks. Provenance: The attribution to Coxed and Woster is supported by the piece’s impeccable quality and stylistic hallmarks. The partnership, active between 1700 and 1735, operated from the White Swan at St. Paul’s Churchyard in London. Known for producing luxurious walnut and burr maple veneered...
