About the Item

Victorian Clocks by Richard Good. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. In this fascinating and fully-illustrated book Richard Good examines, in detail, over 140 examples of the different types of clock made in the Victorian period, including: carriage clocks, mantel and table clocks, long case clocks, regulators, skeleton clocks, marine and domestic chronometers, Cole-type clocks, time signals and electric clocks, and turret clocks. The styles are as varied as the types: Regency, Egyptian (following Nelson's Battle of the Nile), Oriental, and the strongest influence of all, the Gothic Revival. Richard Good details the individuals and firms who made these extraordinary clocks and evaluates their contributions to the history of clockmaking. The book has many illustrations and useful reference appendices that makes this an invaluable book for the collector, student or anyone with an interest in clocks. NPT Books a division of N.P. Trent Antiques has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions. We offer free shipping to any domestic address.
