ANTIQUE #SA1019566

Goliath Four Glass Clock

£5,450    $7,481    €6,262
This exceptionally rare table regulator of oversized proportions is deceptive in scale, from the movement and escapement to the pendulum every aspect of the clock has been scaled up disguising the clocks proportions until viewed in person (see picture of pendulum next to a standard mercury pendulum).
 
The circular two train bell striking movement with visible Brocot escapement incorporating agate pallets and regulated by twin glass-jar mercury compensated half-seconds pendulum, the backplate stamped with S. Marti, et Cie, MEDAILLE DE BRONZE ROUNDEL to centre, the upper left with serial number 4754 and the lower margin stamped 24, the 6 inch circular white enamel two-piece dial with visible escapement to the recessed centre within Roman numeral chapter ring, with blued steel moon hands within ogee moulded bezel. Housed in a gilded case with thick bevelled glass sides. The proportions of this clock and the quality of this movement make it an extremely handsome piece, Circa 1880.
