About the Item
Bracket Clock
London
wood, brass
around 1800
Dimensions: H x W x D: 46 x 27 x 17 cm
Description:
English bracket clock in an ebonised "bell-top" wooden case with a carrying handle attached to the top.
The typical box-shaped case is glazed on all sides and thus provides a clear view of the solid brass movement.
Equipped with a spring balancer via steel strings and fusee, the movement runs for just over a week when fully wound. The rate is regulated by means of a verge escapement and the short pendulum on the back. A bell is struck on the hour.
The silver-plated dial in the shape of an arch has Roman hour and Arabic minute markings. The blued steel hands ensure that the time is easy to read against the light-coloured background. The striking mechanism can be switched off using the lever located in the arched segment.
The clockmaker's signature is engraved with impressive finesse: J.Johnson London. Although the engravings are covered with black shellac, the fineness of the engravings means that the finest curves can only be recognised on closer inspection.
