It was listed by Masons Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Masons Antiques has dated this piece to the 1850s.
Made by top London maker, UPJOHN & BRIGHT of 5, King William St.,The Strand, London, they are recorded as working from 1823 to 1863 (and beyond).
Striking wall clocks are few and far between and hence much saught after.
The mahogany case is suberbly constucted from the finest quality timber. It has a chisel shaped base to the backbox with drop down, key lockable door, side inspection door, and sound fret to the top.
It has a very attractive narrow surround to the dial.
A heavy, cast brass bezel with bevelled glass.
The off-white dial appears to be un-restored from new, with black, Roman numerals and blued steel hands.
It is a pleasure to be able to offer such an original clock for sale.
Masons Antiques has dated this piece to the 1850s.
