19th century
Description

A Regency library clock timepiece in a mahogany case, the case of smaller proportions surmounted by a gilt brass pineapple finial over a chamfered top with moulded edge and brass line inlay, over a moulded cornice to straight sides each with a gilt brass floral basket handle and ebonised, inlaid corners, the front with brass inlay around the dial and with a string course below with further inlay, over a plinth base with an ebonised gadroon, raised on brass ball feet, the hinged gilt brass bezel with convex glass over a 6” off-white painted Roman dial with outer minute track and blued steel moon hands and marked George Miles London the the centre, to an eight day single fusee movement with an anchor escapement in an ogee shaped backplate, English, circa 1810. Supplied with its pendulum, winding key and door keys.

Condition: Overall very good, the clock is in good condition with no damage, there have been some very old repairs to the top of the case, otherwise it is in good condition, the dial is in good condition and apparently original, the numerals are clear and not worn, the movement has been fully serviced and overhauled and is in excellent working order.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Regency library clocks are compact 19th-century English timepieces crafted between 1810 and 1830, featuring architectural cases in hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, often adorned with brass inlay.

These clocks predominantly feature flame mahogany or rosewood cases with decorative brass brassware, brass stringing or inlay, glass dials, and brass movements.

Authentic Regency clocks display period-correct construction such as hand-cut brass inlay, cast brass feet or finials, mechanical movements, and maker signatures on enamel or painted dials.

Position the clock centrally on a chimney piece, desk, or sideboard to create a focal point, pairing it with clean-lined contemporary art or books for balance.

Maintain the clock by dusting with a soft, lint-free cloth, avoiding direct heat sources or humid environments, and having the internal movement serviced by a professional horologist every few years.
