These two timepieces were made by Henry Matthews silversmiths in Birmingham, and are both in great condition with solid silver cases, bun feet, and silver C scroll handles. Although not an exact pair, with a slight difference in size and with different sets of hands, they are almost identical and were only made a year apart, with the carriage on the left hallmarked for 1906 and on the right 1905. Two finely crafted items which could be a gift for two siblings perhaps, or be displayed together to tell time in two different timezones. A very attractive pair which will certainly hold their value.
