Description

A fine and very original carriage clock with its original outer case (numbered to the base) covered in 'Moroccan leather' which unusually retains its leather carry handle. The original numbered Key is also included. The proportions of the clock are a little larger than average, with all original bevelled glass. The original gilding has been carefully restored and the movement fully overhauled in our workshop and is supplied with a two year written guarantee. This fine clock strikes the hours on a gong and one blow for the half hour. Repeat on demand.

A. Barrie of Princes Street, Edinburgh was a prestigious jeweler and retailer of clocks, they had a superb establishment . This clock would have been sold by them circa 1880. This clock is almost giant size!
