Chinese Chippendale Clock

This magnificent English longcase, or grandfather, clock boasts a fine rosewood case inlaid with an intricate, balanced design.

The three weights power the time, the hour chime and the quarter-hour chime, and the clock strikes on nine tubular bells with a choice of either Whittington or Westminster chimes. Known commonly as “grandfather” clocks, it was not until the late 19th century that longcase clocks garnered this name. According to the origin tale, two brothers named Jenkins owned the George Hotel...
