Description
condition. This and the next few lots were made by the same clockmaker. Note both cases and silk suspension movements are new, but finished to high standards, with genuine porcelain dials. This clock runs a bit fast and someone has added shot to the pendulum and managed to dent the bob at the same time. Note the hinges and rear hanger have been rusted with acid to give the appearance of age. The artist who carved the door did a superb job and except for close inspection, this clock gives the appearance of a period piece. Dial 3 inches, height 22 inches
