Arundel Clocks has dated this piece to the 1890s.
I have for sale a rare striking double fusee lantern clock cycle 1890s English lantern clock made in England by Thomas Bridge of London this is one of the best I have ever seen a large mega heavy example of English workmanship from a bygone age, offered fully serviced running strong direct from a house clearance via the original family owners.
The Case
The case is in solid brass and stands 42cm high x 15cm wide with a depth of 15cm it is in very good original condition with a cast bell at the top and scroll work around the face and dolphins across the top the work is of top quality a very nice heavy striking clock with the solid strike hammer.
The Dial
The dial is in good condition with a brass chapter ring with engraved black Roman numerals housed within with a scrolled mask, the clock also retains its original brass handmade ornate hands.
The Movement
The movement is an eight-day time and strike, which strikes the hours on each hour on the bell to the top a nice crisp sound, the movement has been fully restored with new springs then serviced and oiled so keeping a great time over the eight days via the original pendulum.
The movement is a thick plated brass movement running via twin fusee and the original chain all fully restored and serviced it is simply stunning.
Overall a very beautiful heavy large quality lantern clock by a quality maker that looks stunning on display and contains all of its original features this is quite a rare find these days.
