A Rare Drocourt No. 14993: Carriage Clock and Calendar

About the Item

A Drocourt No. 14993: Carriage Clock circular enamel dial against a gilt mask, The movement bearing Drocourt’s stamp and number We are pleased to offer this fine and very rare carriage clock of French manufacture dating from the 3rd quarter of the 19th Century which has the complications of day and date. As can be seen from the images the clock is in excellent condition and is currently being professionally serviced by Walsh of Purley Surrey to ensure long term customer satisfaction. The fine quality movement of 8 day duration is signed and was possibly made for the English market. The circular white porcelain dial is in perfect condition and retains its steel moon steel hands. Underneath are three subsidiary dials for the alarm , day and date which can be set from the rear of the clock. These dials have a beautiful gilded engine turned masking. It really is very uncommon to find such complications on a carriage clock and it would have been very expensive indeed when new. The clock is 7.5 inches tall to the very top of the handle and 5.7 inches (handle down) ,4 inches wide and 3.3 inches deep making it suitable to be placed anywhere. The clock is totally genuine and original I would describe the overall condition as excellent with no faults and very presentable, Interested parties are very welcome to view the item. We will give 12 months guarantee free of charge.
