18th Century wall clock by Dundee clockmaker James Ivory has a good time at auction © Anderson & Garland, Newcastle. It is difficult to pinpoint the greatest Scottish clockmaker. Among them is certainly that master of complication, John Smith of Pittenweem. James Ivory is not far behind. Ivory (1729-1793) is probably Dundee’s best-known clockmaker. He gained his apprenticeship in London, returned to Scotland and lived and worked in Dundee until his death. Ivory rose to considerable eminence as a clockmaker far beyond Dundee but, locally, he is best known for making the clock in the 132ft spire of St Andrew’s Parish Church, Cowgate. The McManus owns a fabulous longcase example, too.
