Striking French Carriage Clock - Victorian - Lovely Condition

Clockwise is delighted to welcome into stock this lovely Victorian eight-day carriage clock, complete with strike function. The beautifully proportioned brass case is in fantastic condition, complemented by five original bevelled glasses. The clock also retains its original vanity plate to the underside of the base, adding an extra touch of authenticity. The rack-striking movement incorporates a lever platform escapement and has just undergone a full service and clean, benefiting from my three-year guarantee. The platform escape wheel has a dynamic action, while the clock strikes the full hours on a spiral gong, with a single strike at each half hour. Original spade hands complement the exquisite masked dial, which is a particularly striking feature of this beautiful timepiece. This is a stunning, fully restored Victorian carriage clock, offered in exceptional working and cosmetic condition. At Clockwise, I do not believe in short guarantees or part restorations sometimes offered elsewhere — this clock has been properly restored and is ready for its new forever home. Clockwise specialises in fine longcase and bracket clocks and has built an unrivalled reputation for excellence and superb service, with clients ranging from the worlds of business, film, sport, royalty and aristocracy, as well as a loyal clientele of traditional clock enthusiasts. Please note: the stated height measurement of 17.5cm is taken to the top of the upturned carrying handle.
