Incredible Black and Gilt Cast Iron Mantel Clock C1900

1900 - 1920
Description

Black and Gilt cast iron mantel clock c1900

~~ original condition throughout ~~

The case is quite extraordinary made of cast iron with a gilt vase and pair of lion heads to each side, the vase is a copy if the famous Warwick Vase. The gilding is genuine and not gold painted as the majority of gilt clocks are.

Very often called an 'industrial clock' as it was made at the turn of the century when cast iron manufacturing flourished.

The white enamel dial is original with only a minute chip which is barely noticeable and certainly does not detract from the piece, the glass is in perfect original condition.

The movement has just been serviced and is keeping good time, but has a small peculiarity in that it strikes twice at one oclock, other than that it is in perfect working order.

It runs for over 8 days between winding and strikes on the hour and half hour on a tuned coiled gong.

The clock movement comes with a full 12 month warranty.

Please be aware this clock is also available for sale in our shop and if there are no bids may be withdrawn.

If you would like for information please telephone Andrew and Lynn Wilson of Fowey River Antiques, Cornwall on 01726 813155 daytime and evenings, we are open 7 days a week!

Dimensions of clock: Height 13.5", Depth 9" and width 9".

Delivery for this item to England, Scotland and Wales is £20, unfortunately we are unable to post to Northern or Southern Ireland.

Due to the heavy weight of this clock international delivery is £120

Why not collect in person and have a weekend in Cornwall - we are 2 miles from the historic port of Fowey and 3 miles from world famous Eden Project.
