ANTIQUE #SA775052

Classic Mantel Clock-timepiece .

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Its About Time

This is a very small and attractive timepiece of extremely high quality. The case is constructed in the Georgian style being of Oak with a thick Mahagany ''flame'' veneer, the colour and patina are perfect, Chestnut and toffee! The dial had been signed to the rear Frodsham and C then Sec? The high quality movement has been fully overhauled and does not have a pendulum you have to worry about fitting. The case features ''fish scale'' frets to both sides, a fret work rear door and a full opening front. The dial is ''off white'' showing Roman numerals and blued steel hands. The clock stands on 4 bracket feet and has a solid cast brass carry handle. Quite an usual clock and very small in comparison to other Bracket clocks. The Charles Frodsham connection is a mystery and perhaps someone could shed a little light on that ? There are of course many Frodshams listed in the clockmakers volumes. The quality of this fine clock does suggest London cabinet making and clockmaking.
