Longcase Clock

Description

Dating from circa 1775 this is a stunning five pillar movement eight day longcase clock striking on a bell via a countwheel. The dial is unsigned, indicating probably an apprentice”s work under the auspices of a master clockmaker and depicts a coastal scene. The movement is encased within a heavily ornate and impressive carved solid oak and banded mahogany case and the hood is adorned with brass capitals and side columns. The case, movement and dial have all been restored and the bell has a beautiful light tone and as with all my clocks this piece comes with a three year guarantee.
