Rare Egyptian Influence Bracket Clock by Brockbanks of London

19th century
Description

An exceptionally rare Regency bracket clock by Brockbanks of London, with designs aspects almost certainly inspired by Thomas Hope.

The unusually large lancet top shaped bracket clock is veneered with flame veneer to the front elevation and is mounted with Egyptian influence designs to the corners. Featuring not only brass but also bronze mounts and with ebony line inlay throughout.

The large high quality triple fusee movement has a 'ting tang' quarter striking feature on two bells and with the hour striking on a separate single bell. The striking can also be turned off via a lever above number XII. The time is displayed on an enamel dial with blued steel hands.

This is not just a clock but an exceptional work of art which may have originally been made for an Exhibition or public area such as a meeting room or library.

C.1805

Please Note: Both the case and dial have now been sympathetically restored. This highly desirable and collectable clock is now available to view at our Showrooms in Wiltshire by appointment.

The movement is in working order but it will require a full overhaul and service before delivery. It will then be guaranteed for 3 years

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Egyptian Revival clock design emerged in the early nineteenth century following Napoleonic campaigns, incorporating decorative elements such as sphinxes, obelisks, and pharaonic herms into traditional European clock cabinetry.

Regency bracket clocks typically feature flame mahogany or rosewood veneered timber cases, cast bronze or brass mounts, silvered or enamelled dials, and brass eight-day mechanical movements.

Authentication involves examining maker signatures on the dial or movement, checking for hand-cut movement components, verifying period-correct cast metal mounts, and inspecting natural age-related patina on the timber casing.

Position the clock as a central decorative object on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard, or within a curated bookcase, where its rich timber tones and metal details contrast with contemporary background surfaces.

Position the clock away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage, wipe the casing gently with a dry microfibre cloth, and arrange for a professional horologist to service the mechanical movement every five to seven years.
