Y A WILLIAM IV BOULLE MANTEL TIMEPIECE IN THE LOUIS XV TASTEPAYNE, LONDON, CIRCA 1830The circular four columnar pillar single chain fusee movement with anchor escapement regulated by lenticular bob pendulum, the twenty-five piece white enamel cartouche dial with convex centre inscribed Payne, 163 NEW BOND STREET, LONDON within chapter ring with enamel Roman hour numerals within rococo borders and conforming Arabic five minutes to the repeating rosette decorated outer track, with blued steel moon hands set behind hinged convex glazed cast brass bezel, the engraved foliate scroll cut glass and red stained shell veneered case with generous acanthus scroll surmount to the ogee-shaped upstand applied with conforming scroll mounts to angles, over generous shaped crest and panel decorated with delicate symmetrical scrollwork beneath the dial flanked by leafy shouldered mounts to front angles, the scroll-outline sides further inlaid with scrolling foliage and the rear veneered in kingwood incorporating a shaped door, on generous rococo scroll cast feet with leafy apron to front between.47.5cm (18.75ins) high, 26cm (10.25ins) wide, 16.5cm (6.5ins) deep. William Payne first worked from 62 South Moulton Street, London from 1816. By 1825 he had moved to 163 New Bond Street with the firm becoming William Payne & Company at that address in 1852. Condition Report: Movement is in relatively clean working condition although a precautionary gentle clean/service is advised. The mechanism appears free form visible alteration or noticeable replacements between the plates. The pendulum is not original and the evidence in the backplate (spare threaded hole to eh lower margin) suggests that a holdfast clamp was fitted at some point. The movement securing brackets are each lacking one (out of two) screws, and the fusee pivot has noticeable bush inserted within the backplate. The dial centre has some slight chipping around the winding hole as well as some slight scratching to the central ena,el roundel. The 'X' hour cartouche has an enamel chip to lower right hand margin and the '60' minute panel has a very small chip to the left hand edge otherwise enamel appears free form visible damage. The bezel glass is presently loose hence requires fitting (snapping into place?), the bezel itself is rubbed and generally discoloured/tarnished in appearance compared to the case mounts. The case is generally in fine condition with no noticeable losses to the brass marquetry and only slight localised fill repairs to the shell veneers to the right- hand side otherwise faults to the veneers are very much limited to minor movement and age-related blemishes. The mounts are nicely finished and retain their gilding with only very light wear/discolouration. The rear is in good condition with only a very small bruise to the edge of the door evident.Timepiece has a pendulum but no winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

She was educated at Streatham College for Girls, and continued to live in that area of South London into adulthood. While still a child, Allen produced watercolours inspired by the New Testament, which were published in 1912 by George Allen as 'A Child’s Visions'. In the same year, they were exhibited as ‘A Child’s Visions and Fancies’ at the Dudley Galleries. In 1913, a second group was published as 'The Birth of the Opal. A Child’s Fancies', and again exhibited at the Dudley Galleries. Through her teens, Allen illustrated volumes by other authors for Headley Brothers: John Oxenham’s 'The Cradle of Our Lord, 1916', 'A Garden of Love from Herrick & the Other Poets of the 17th Century, 1917', and Janet Dykes and Christine Standing’s 'The Man Who Chose Poverty – The Story of St Francis, 1917'. She also exhibited alongside Annie French and others at the Burlington Gallery in December 1919. Later exhibitions include one of ‘landscapes and imaginative watercolours’ at B F Stevens & Brown (1928) and another of paintings at the Little Burlington Gallery (1937). Her further activities included painting memorials (including one for Christ Church, Newcastle, New South Wales), designing stained glass (for Scotby Church, Northumberland), and producing drawings for the 'Illustrated London News' (at least until the end of 1952).
