Item Details

Description

circa 1815, attributed to James Mattison, Anderson County, South CarolinaBroken arch top above astragal glazed door ahead of painted dial resting on rectangular waist with molded door and base and cut-out bracket feet. Fitted with Seth Thomas wood works movement and signed dial. James Mattison, born Prince William County, Virginia in 1762, served in the Revolutionary war at the age of 14 as a drummer boy. After his marriage in Virginia, he and his growing family moved to South Carolina and established themselves along the Saluda river in modern day Anderson County, just east of Honea Path. Surviving records identify him as a successful land owner, farmer, miller, merchant and cabinetmaker. One family history published in the 1970s refers to him as a “very fine cabinet maker” and mentions various pieces still in the possession of his descendants. The wood utilized in his cabinetmaking endeavors would have been processed at his saw mill which is shown on Colton’s map of South Carolina (1854) as being on Broad Mouth creek, a tributary of the Saluda. Period surveys affirm his ownership of this land and the saw mill is mentioned in his will dated 1849, the year of his death. The clock is inscribed “Wm H Mattison” twice, referring to the owner, William Halbert Mattison of Anderson County, b. 1845, d. 1928. William served in the Civil War under Captain James Addison Cowan, Company E, 20th South Carolina Infantry. He was James Mattison’s grandson. In as found condition. The competent construction techniques and use of refined decorative details attest to James’s skill as a cabinetmaker. The poplar case appears to retain its original stained ‘mahogany’ surface, a common approach for cabinetmakers attempting to appropriate the appearance of a more exotic or desirable wood; the use of Seth Thomas movements in Southern clocks is not uncommon as it was economically more feasible to use a "factory" movement which would universally fit a variety of cases. Seth Thomas ended production of this type movement in 1818. From the Private Collection of Mr. & Mrs. Gary Thompson, Travelers Rest, South Carolina.1818. H93" W17" D11"
