Provenance:The Leonard Fuller Collection. John Rowley is recorded in Clifton, Gloria Directory of British Scientific Instrument Makers 1550-1851 as a mathematical instrument maker and book engraver working from 'Behind the Exchange' Threadneedle Street, London in 1691, then from 'The Globe under St. Dunstan's Church' Fleet Street 1702-15 and at Johnson's Court, Fleet Street 1710-27; Clifton noted that the latter address may well have been his living residence. Amongst Rowley's apprentices was Thomas Wright (in 1707) who then went on to become his successor and one of the most important makers of scientific instrument makers of the eighteenth century. Another apprentice was John Coggs who went on to become particularly well known for his sundials, most notably his universal ring dials. This design of portable pocket sundial was devised by Michael Butterfield, an English Instrument maker who settled in Paris around 1685. Although this type of dial became popular with other French makers (most notably those who worked nearby to Butterfield's workshop on 'Le Quay de L'Horloge') very few appear to have been made by English makers in London; hence the present lot is a particularly rare example. Condition Report: The instrument appears to be in fine original condition with the only notable fault being a small shallow chip to the inside edge of the compass glass. The case is intact and in sound original condition. The right-hand eye for the securing latch is missing and there is a small loss to the wooden structure to the interior of the lid at this point. There is also a small section of the delicate raised lip (for locating/closing against the inner edge of the lid) to the lower section missing. The lid has a slight warp/distortion, and the velvet lining has overall fading/wear. The underside has some later pins towards one edge no doubt to secure lifting skin covering at some point. Otherwise, faults are limited to minor age-related wear. Condition Report Disclaimer
