It was listed by Cross Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Cross Antiques has dated this piece to the 1800s.
The case is in good quality mahogany and has many features of a London clock, e.g.
The good quality, five pillar movement has a white enamel and gilt dial displaying the phases of the moon to the arch. Between the moons to one side is a starry sky complete with a comet. This is often found on earlier brass moon dials. Another early feature for this type of clock is that the dial is attached directly to the movement without a false plate.
The case is in excelent condition with working locks and keys to both the hood and trunk doors.
The movement looks to have been recently serviced, is in good working order and keeping good time.
The maximum dimensions are:
209cm (82") high
50cm (19.5") wide
26cm (10") deep
This clock was last sold in 2009 for £4800 so now represents particularly good value.
