Leila and the Giaour Gilded Bronze Clock, France, Circa 1830
Located in PARIS, FR
Dial signed Polti Frères
Measures: With base or glass: Height 61 cm (24 in.), width 51,5 cm (20.3 in.), depth 23.5 cm (9,2 in.)
Without base: Height 52 cm (20,5 in.), width 42 cm (16.5 in.), depth 12.5 cm (4.9 in.)
Important philhellenic clock in burnished and amati gilded bronze, finely chiseled, representing on the terrace a couple elegantly dressed in "the turkish style", and richly decorated with foliage, scrolls and flowers. The feet, decorated with water leaves, rest on an oval wooden base covered with a globe.
The theme of the clock comes from The Giaour, a fragment of a Turkish Tale, an English poem by Lord Byron published in may 1813 which tells the thwarted love of a Venetian, the Giaour – term by which the Turks designate infidels and especially Christians – and of Leila, a slave belonging to Hassan’s seraglio, military leader of a Turkish province. The betrayal of Leila discovered, she will be thrown into the sea and her lover will avenge her by killing Hassan, then taking refuge in a monastery.
Symbol of prestige and modernity, the decorative clocks are a reflection of the taste of the era of a wealthy bourgeoisie and may be the subject of diplomatic gifts or between individuals.
Beyond the purely decorative aspect of such objects, watchmaking in the 19th century is part of a subtle mix of political, historical and literary references.
This philhellenic movement converning the West finds a particular echo in France, one of the countries with the United Kingdom and Russia having suported the Greeks during their war of independance (1821-1830) to free oneself from the grip of the Ottoman Empire. Many clocks...

Small 18th Century George I Period Table Clock by Gamaliel Voyce, c.1725
Located in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom
An extremely attractive early 18th century George I period table clock of small proportions by Gamaliel Voyce, c.1725.
The proportions of the petite clock (measuring only 14 inches (36cm) with the handle up) are such that is difficult not to fall in love with it. The timepiece has a five knopped and finely finned pillar gut-fusee movement with verge escapement and a short knife-edge suspended pendulum. It has a pull quarter repeat on two vertically positioned bells indicating the hours on the larger bell followed by the quarter hours sounding a ting-tang strike on both bells. The profusely engraved backplate and verge cock apron depict symmetrical floral and scrolling leaf and vine patterns around a prominent signature cartouche: Gam Voyce London.
The break-arch brass dial has a silvered chapter ring, a circular signature plaque to the arch, date aperture right under the middle and a false pendulum aperture under the XII. The chapter ring has Roman numerals within a minute ring and an outer Arabic five-minute track. The dial centre is finely matted and the gilt-brass corner spandrels are of the crown and sceptre design, while the arch spandrels depict putti looking outwards. The time is indicated by a fine pair of pierced blued steel hands.
The ebonised fruitwood veneered oak case has an inverted bell top surmounted by a brass swinging carrying handle, well-formed and returned top moulding and door edge moulding. All sides are glazed so that the fine movement is almost entirely visible. The arched side panels are surmounted by smaller shaped windows. Both doors have fretted quadrants backed with red silk and well-formed elaborated concave mouldings.
The clock is in excellent fully restored condition and keeping good time.
The maker, Gamaliel Voyce, perhaps originally of French family origin, was born in England around 1673. Voyce became the patriarch of a large family of 18th-century clockmakers who eventually settled in Gloucestershire. However, Gamaliel himself worked in London and was apprenticed to Sarah Payne from 1687 to 1694.2 Sarah, widow of Nicholas Payne, was one of a small group of female horologists of the time. A record in the Clockmakers Company minutes notes:
"14th day of January 1694...Gamaliel Voyce, who was the Apprentice of Sarah Payne was admitted and sworne a Free clockmaker &c vide his subscription in ffol 216 of the large Parchment Book."
Witnesses that day were notables such as William Clement, Joseph Windmills, Joseph Knibb...
