More information

Petter Ernst (1714-84) från Växjö blev på Kungl. Vetenskapsakademiens inrådan erbjuden den Schnackska urfabriken "Stockholms Manufabrique" av Riksens ständers manufakturkontor p.g.a. en allomvittnad teknisk skicklighet som urmakare. I augusti 1753 flyttade Ernst till Stockholm och övertog rörelsen som han skötte framgångsrikt. 1755 fanns det tre gesäller, två lärlingar, en lackerare, en snickargesäll i fabriken. Femton år senare hade han åtta gesäller, vilket var mycket för en verkstad i Stockholm på 1700-talet. Ernst tycks ha numrerat sina klockor i löpande följd. Uret med numrering 350 är märkt "Peter Ernst Wexiö" och nummer 351 är märkt "Pehr Ernest Stockholms Fabrique N:o 351", bägge från år 1753. Auktionens bordsur är märkt 356 och kan således dateras till samma år eller det påföljande året. Ernsts högsta hittills funna tillverkningsnummer är 1144.
