Rare Marine Oak Cased Wall Clock Retailed by Walsh Jones & Co Melbourne, 19th C

About the Item

A rare Mid-19th Century circular Marine oak cased wall clock of diminutive proportions, the brass dial with Roman numeral chapter ring and marked "Walsh, Jones Co. London", the oak case diameter 7 inches x depth 4.3 inches. Chain fusee English movement. Walsh Jones & Co was a short-lived partnership in Melbourne in 1854-1855, between Henry S. Walsh (1806-1877), a Melbourne clock and watch maker and retailer, and Edwin Jones of Melbourne. The clock face gives the firm's address as London, but this was a common practice for Melbourne firms that were importing and retailing English made clocks. This clock was acquired in the UK and has been sympathetically conserved in our workshop by our qualified Horologist. The case, which has a beautiful aged patina, has been cleaned and polished, the brass dial has been re-silvered and the movement fully serviced. The rarity and size of this clock make it particularly desirable.
