Description

Brian Loomes Lists 2 Geo Borrett Clockmakers at Stowmarket, Suffolk - Father & Son.

Geo 1 - "next door to the Black Swan, Married 1753, Insolvent 1780. Also at Market Place, Harwich (Essex) c.1773-4. Also Jeweller & Silversmith.

Geo 2 - Stowmarket (Suffolk) Born 1754. Moved to Harwick (Essex) Died 1773.

As Geo 2 Died only aged 19, it is likely that this Clock was by Geo 1 and one of his early clocks before he moved to Harwick.

Good Solid Oak Case with Attractive Decoration and Patination. Height 80.67in or 204.75cm

Upon looking closely at all aspects of this clock, we are of the opinion that, whilst the Dial has its design origins typical of Dials Fitted to 30 Hour Single Weight Long Pendulum Grandfather Clocks; it, the Movement and Case were conceived and made for each other from their formulation to give a Traditional look But with the then Modern Technology of a Fusee Timepiece.

This has been Checked, Service, Tested and offered in Good and Full Antique Working Condition.
