Walnut Longcase Clock- Gray and Vulliamy , London
We are delighted to offer for sale this superb and original George II figured walnut longcase clock by one of the most eminent partnerships of the Georgian period, Benjamin Gray & Justin Vulliamy circa 1745.
The elegantly proportioned case veneered with highly figured walnut of fine colour and good patination on an English oak carcase. Standing on a double plinth, the case rises to a caddy top with two giltwood ball finials. A similar antique clock is illustrated in Tom Robinsons book "The longcase Clock" page 276 next to a clock by George Graham and current expert research strongly suggest that they used the same case maker
The fine quality five pillar movement, with twelve inch square brass dial mounted with well-cast urn spandrels, a silvered chapter ring, matted brass centre and a large subsidiary seconds dial, a particular feature of Gray & Vulliamy antique clocks of this period. Above six o'clock is an aperture to view the day of the month and there is a silvered cartouche signed by the makers and applied to the matted centre.
The dial is particularly pleasing and displays refinement and clarity.
The high quality bespoke movement has eight day duration with rack strike and sounding the hours on a bell.
The clock is complete with the original steel rod pendulum with a heavy brass cased lead filled bob and calibrated rating nut beneath. The original brass weights are also present with the going train driven by a light weight which indicates the precision to which the movement was made
The overall condition is excellent and the clock is in perfect working order. Like all antiques of this great age there are the odd age related marks but the condition will delight the most discerning client
Justin Vulliamy arrived in London from Switzerland c1730. He married Benjamin Gray's daughter and in 1743 he joined his father-in-law in partnership in Gray's already well-established business in St James's Street before moving to Pall Mall in 1752. Gray was appointed Clockmaker to George II in 1744. The partnership developed a great reputation as innovative makers of fine clocks and watches. The Royal association was maintained by the Vulliamy family until the mid-nineteenth century.
