EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent Regency giant quarter striking eight day turn-table musical organ clock from the early 19th century. Standing at an impressive height of 235 cm, this gilt-brass mounted mahogany masterpiece is a true testament to English craftsmanship. The clock's massive case rests on a purpose-made mahogany pedestal and features a double inverted bell top adorned with pineapple finials. Gilt-brass trellis sound frets and large ball finials add an exquisite touch to its design. The front door is flanked by Ionic brass columns, while the rear case angles are embellished with brass mouldings. A painted Roman dial, measuring 12 inches wide, bears the signature of Thwaites & Reed/Clerkenwell/LONDON. The lower half of the clock displays polychrome floral decoration and tune music selection options such as SONG/COOLUN/TYROLESE/WALTZ/WALTZ/WALTZ/WALTZ/WALTZ/CONTRADANZA/CONTRADANZA, accompanied by REPITE/SILENCIO for selecting silent or play mode each hour. The clock's triple chain and fusee movement includes an anchor escapement that strikes the hours on a single bell and quarters on eight nested bells. A trip repeat function adds convenience to its operation. Notably, this remarkable timepiece also houses a substantial chain and fusee organ movement that plays through 50 pipes via a pinned wooden barrel. Its intricate details make it truly awe-inspiring. Photographed by eChristies Images and part of a private collection, this image captures both the grandeur and intricacy of this exceptional Regency organ clock from centuries past.
