Description

Charming Small Oak Longcase Clock with Brass Dial and 30 Hour Movement by James Gibson of London - Charles II, James II, William III and Mary II Era.

Following a though Check and Service, the movement is offered in Good Antique Working Order.

The Case is Good and Sound, though as seen in the photos, has the odd repair. Only 78.5in or 199.5cm High. At the Hood it is 50cm wide and 26.5cm deep. At the Base 44.5cm wide and 24cm deep.

Also photographed is an old note with a previous owner's thoughts and conclusions as to the Age of the Clock. As Clockmakers were introduced to the then New Longcase Clock Technology they integrate these with their existing expertise of Lantern Clocks. Subsequently, Lantern Clock Features were dropped and Longcase Clock Movement Construction Evolved into the Generic Designs We Associate Today.

Cases Also Evolved in Many Ways including Moving Away From Hood Columns Forming Part of the Hood and Being Separate Features, with the introduction of other Woods and Styles.

Please email or contact Robert on 07899 058752 to Arrange Viewing or Discuss Delivery and Setup Options. Whenever Possible I Will Do This Personally but, For Longer Distances, Courier Services May be More Suitable. In which Case Detailed Setup instructions will be Included. Either way, before shipping the Clock will be Checked to Ensure Easy Setup.
