George III Single Pad Top Mahogany Bracket Clock

Clockwise is delighted to present for your consideration a fine example of a high quality George III mahogany single pad top antique bracket clock. Standing almost 16 inches tall, this increasingly rare example is in superb condition. The mahogany case has inset brass to the chamfered corners, a fully locking front door/panel and it stands on ogee brass bracket feet. It has relined sound frets to the sides, a glass rear door to highlight the excellent quality movement and retains its original brass carrying handle to the pad top. The recently overhauled and cleaned eight day duration fusee rack-striking five pillar movement has an anchor recoil escapement and as such benefits from my three year guarantee. The full hours are struck on a beautiful sounding bell. The back plate is heavily engraved and signed with the makers name - Edward Bird, Bristol. The original London-style pendulum accompanies this handsome piece. The fully restored dish dial, accompanied by original spade hands, and again with the maker's name notated to the dial finishes the appearance. Clockwise specialises in longcase and bracket clocks and with clients from the world of business, film, sport, royalty and aristocracy - yet more than happy with traditional clients - Clockwise has an unrivalled reputation for excellence and superb service.
