It was listed by Masons Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Masons Antiques has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
The flame mahogany case has inlaid boxwood and ebony stringing with rosewood crossbanding. It has a cathedral arched door, canted corners to the base, and stands on splayed bracket feet. The key lockable hood has a swan-neck pediment with brass patare and eagle ball finials.
The clock retains it's original French-polished finish and has a superb, rich patina.
The painted arched dial has subsiduary date and seconds dials with a moon phase dial to the top. All are in perfect working order. The dial has a raised convex dish centre; a feature rarely seen and all in beautifull condition.
The 8 day, bell striking movement has just been fully reconditioned in our own workshop by our own BHI registered staff.
A really majestic clock of the finest quality and one of the nicest clocks we have ever had the pleasure of offering for sale.
