Attractive flame mahogany longcase clock with charming painted dial of a couple at harvest time. The girl watching her boo eat his lunch she has bought him. Church with bridges joining the 2 banks and cottage scenes in the corners. Seconds and date dials
I have not yet fully deciphered the makers name and town. It looks to read:- tho: chaytor of south moor. There was a samuel chaytor of county durham listed by brian loomes circa 1770-1837. Though he suspects it should in fact read chatus and not chaytor. So, whether thomas was a relative or unconnected I cannot confirm at present.
The case is from beautiful mahogany with attractive graining and patination. Of good proportions and size with slim trunk.
