N Wilson Antiques Clocks has dated this Coromandel Fusee Mantel Clock to the 19th Century.
The clock has a lovely shaped, stepped top which leads to a moulding joining to the square body of the case. The front of the case then has wonderful, scrolling, mother of pearl inlay to the corners of the front which set it off beautifully. The base of the case then has a further two mouldings leading to four nicely shaped brass feet.
The dial is then silvered and set out in black Roman numerals with a smaller band marking out the minutes. The dial then has two lovely shaped hands as well as a round bevelled glass set into a brass bezel. The bezel then locks when shut and is complete with key to open to the side.
The movement is then wound from the front and accessed from the back. It ticks away as it should and comes complete with pendulum and key. The movement is single fusee.
A very rare example of a single fusee clock with a case made of extinct wood. This is the only example of an coromandel single fusee mantel clock that I have ever seen! Would make a fantastic addition to any home or collection.
It measures approximately:
10” / 25.5cm Tall.
9” / 23cm Wide.
6.75” / 17cm Deep.
