The silvered lever platform escapement with compensated bimetallic balance striking on a coiled blued steel gong. Running, striking and repeating. 17.5cms (7ins) high.Footnotes:The firm Elkington & Co. is one of the most important names associated with the production of silver plate in England in the 19th century. Formed as a silversmith in Birmingham in 1836, the business was the creation of its founder George Richards Elkington (1800-1865) who began to apply the principals of electro-metallurgy to gilding and plating with silver and by 1838 he had discovered and patented a new way to bond silver onto the surface of another metal using electricity. The firm of Elkington rapidly went into the full-scale production of silver electroplated wares, other items such as clock cases, and recreations of famous works of art in metal which proved extremely lucrative. Works by Elkington & Co. can be found in the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
