George III Ebonized Eight-day Twin Fusee Table Clock by O. Hamley

19th century
Description

A lovely late George III single pad ebonized eight-day, twin fusee table clock with original verge escapement and rack striking by O. Hamley, circa 1800-1815.

The moulded single pad ebonized domed top case with original carrying handle is raised on all four of its original ogee bracket feet onto a detailed base moulding. Gilt-brass sound frets adorn the sides and front in a 'fish scale' pattern backed with bright burgundy silk.

The enameled white dial displays Roman numerals, minute and quarter-hour markers housed inside a gilt-brass bezel and domed glass, signed Hamley, Warwick Place, London.

The clock features a strike/silent switch on the front dial and a repeat to the right-hand-side. The backplate has border engraving and a short pendulum.

Date: 1800-1815

O. Hamley is recorded in Loomes (2006) as being active, circa 1811. He also worked at Bedford Row.

The clock case is in lovely original sleepy condition (though could be polished should you wish). The movement has been serviced and keeps very good time.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A twin fusee table clock from the George III era features a spring-driven mechanical movement utilising cone-shaped pulleys to equalise mainspring tension, housed within a timber cabinet designed in Britain during the late eighteenth or early nineteenth century.

Georgian table clocks typically feature fruitwood or oak cases finished with black ebonised lacquer, cast brass carrying handles, brass movement plates, painted dials, and silk-backed brass fretwork to allow sound transmission.

Authentic period clocks display maker signatures on the dial or backplate, five-pillar twin fusee movements, hand-drawn Roman numerals, and signs of historical wear on the ebonised surface and brass fittings.

Place the clock centrally on a fireplace mantelpiece, atop a dark timber sideboard, or within a book-lined study to serve as a focal structural accent.

Wind the twin fusee movement weekly using the matching size key, position the case away from direct heat sources to prevent timber cracking, and clean brass mounts using a dry microfibre cloth.
