The heart shaped tray is generally discoloured, it does not ring true, in fact it is very wooden. There are two small hairline cracks at the upper end of the heart and two rim chips. The underside of the tray is badly scuffed and discoloured and has numerous scratches. The sugar basin has been broken into three pieces and glued and there is also a hairline crack. It is also somewhat discoloured. Whilst both teacups ring true, they do both have small top edge chips. The heart shaped saucer rings true and the other one also but not quite as crisply. Both saucers are a little dirty. The teapot lid does not ring true but does not appear to have any repairs. There is however a small under edge lip chip and a slight hairline crack. The teapot itself is a little discoloured and does not quite ring true. The gilding to the teapot is generally a little rubbed but we cannot see any cracks or restoration. All pieces are a little crazed when viewed under magnification.

On the top of the base unit where the waterfall section joins in on the right-hand side there is some damage to the timber and on the right-hand lip there is another crack to the front right hand lip. When opening the cupboard doors, the right-hand side door lower hinge has split at some point and has some larger more modern screws in place.

There is no key and there are two internal shelves.

The top lip has some chips and a more significant loss to one side. All other apertures are in generally good condition with only minor nibbles and losses.

Dish diameter 16 cm (see illustration).The bowl is in good order with no significant issues. There are some minor marks to the centre possibly caused by a plant pot. There are light ring marks.

There is a nibble of approximately 1 mm in width missing.

A VICTORIAN SCOTTISH CARVED MAHOGANY EIGHT-DAY LONGCASE CLOCKH. CONNEL, GLASGOW, MID 19th CENTURYThe four pillar rack and bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by seconds pendulum, the 12 inch circular white painted Roman numeral dial with subsidiary seconds and calendar dials and inscribed H. CONNEL, GLASGOW to centre, with blued steel spade hands, the drumhead case with foliate scroll carved crest applied to the hinged moulded glazed dial surround incorporating gilt canted insert to interior, over a stylised foliate carved cradle and half-round lip mouldings, the trunk formed as a hall-oval section tapered fluted Greek Doric column incorporating removable concealed access segment to right hand-side beneath a projecting moulded capital, set on a five-section faceted plinth base fronted with three moulded panels over a canted skirt with bun feet, (dial re-touched).209cm (82.25ins) high, 52cm (20.5ins) wide, 29cm (11.5ins) deep. A Hugh Connell is recorded in Loomes, Brian Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World, Volume 2 as working in Glasgow circa 1860. Condition Report: Movement is in w0rking condition with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The mechanism is generally a little dirty/neglected hence a precautionary gentle service/lubrication is advisable if intending to put into long-term service. The dial has been refinished to a good standard with blemishes limited to a loss to the surface behind the centre of the subsidiary seconds hand (only visible on close examination). The movement and dial retains original seatboard which rests at the correct level in the case with no packing beneath the cheek uprights hence we are of the belief that the movement and dial are original to the case. The case is generally in sound original condition with faults very much limited to minor bumps, scuffs, wear and other light historic blemishes. The side access panel to the trunk is currently locked and we do not have the key.Clock has pendulum (no suspension spring) and two weights only. Condition Report Disclaimer
A GEORGE II BURR WALNUT EIGHT-DAY LONGCASE CLOCKISAAC DU HAMEL, LONDON, CIRCA 1735The five pillar rack and bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by seconds pendulum, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with subsidiary seconds dial, calendar aperture and applied arched signature plate engraved Isa: Du Hamel, LONDON to the matted centre, within applied Roman numeral chapter ring with fleur-de-lys half hour markers and Arabic five minutes beyond the outer minute track, with scroll-pierced steel hands and applied female mask centred scroll cast spandrels to angles, beneath arch with STRIKE/SILENT selection dial flanked by dolphin cast mounts, in a case with architectural cornice over break-arch glazed hood door flanked by free-standing columns with brass caps and bases, the sides with break-arch glazed apertures and quarter columns set against bargeboards at the rear, the trunk with book-match burr veneered concave throat moulding over break-arch door also fronted with book-matched burr veneers within a triple-line edged border and with complex edge mouldings, the surround with conforming line-edged panels to upper quadrants and the side veneers divided into two panels within crossbanded borders, the plinth base with cavetto top moulding and further line-bordered book-matched burr veneers to fascia over a moulded skirt.229cm (90.25ins) high, 52cm (20.5ins) wide, 25.5cm (10ins) deep. Isaac DuHamel is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as working in London 1731-55. It is most likely that he was of French Huguenot heritage and, as such, would have most probably had connections with the extensive network of Huguenot clockmakers working in London during the first half of the 18th century which included Claude DuChesne and Simon DeCharmes. Condition Report: Movement is essentially in working condition with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements but is very dirty/oily hence a precautionary gentle service/lubrication is required before putting into long-term service. The frontplate shows evidence of an hour trip-repeat lever being fitted at one point which is no longer present. The dial is in good original albeit dirty condition. The spandrels retain old gilt finish but with discolouration and wear and most of the silvering has been rubbed-off. The plate retains old discoloured lacquer finish; the hands appear most likely original. The movement is attached to a later pine seatboard which rests on packing pieces applied to the upper surfaces of the cheek uprights indicating that the movement and dial are not original to the case. The case is generally in sound condition with good veneers. The hood would have originally had a caddy superstructure which has been removed and the top applied with a later board. The upper lip moulding of the cornice is a replacement and the quadrants beneath the cornice would have originally been pierced fretwork (hence the present plain panels are later replacements). The dial mask (behind the hood door) has some chips/losses to the overlap as well as some cracking to the veneers. The rear quarter columns are lacking their caps and bases otherwise faults to the hood are very much limited to minor bumps, scuffs, scratches, and shrinkage commensurate with age as well as some historic worm trail damage. The trunk and base are in sound condition although the left-hand throat moulding has lifting and losses to the veneer. The trunk door is now secured by an unsightly turn-catch as the lock is missing and there are two sections of poorly matched patching to the burr veneers. The sides have some slight wear/blemishes to the rear edges and are also very slightly bowed. The plinth has some losses to the edge banding to the lower right corner of the fascia as well as some holes/perforation losses to the burr veneers in general. The rear left-hand edge has some chipping/wear otherwise faults to the base are essentially limited to historic bumps, scuffs, shrinkage and other relatively minor age-related blemishes. The skirt is a replacement.Clock has two weights and a pendulum only (no winder or case keys). Condition Report Disclaimer
