Dent 19th Century Carved Walnut Caryatid Masked Grandfather Clock

19th century
Description

This is a very special clock as it is by Dent. It has the plaque on the face which says Dent, by Royal Warrant, 34 Cockspur Street London. Dent earned a Royal Warrant as the official watch and clockmaker to Her Majesty Queen Victoria and HRH Albert Prince of Wales in 1841 – a warrant that would be renewed through to George V’s reign. Russian emperors Tsar Alexander III and Tsar Nicholas II, and the Japanese Emperor Mejii also issued Dent with royal warrants.

Dent also constructed the most famous clock in England, BIG BEN. On 25 February 1852 the contract for constructing Big Ben's clock was awarded to Dent . Edward John Dent was to construct the clock according to Edmund Beckett Denison's design. Edward John Dent died in 1853 and it was left to his son, Frederick Dent, to complete the job.

This Clock dates to 1870-1880 and is in very good condition.
