Clock · Dial clock

This George III period dial clock is housed in a mahogany case featuring shaped and carved edges. A cast brass bezel with a hinge supports a convex glass cover over the dial. The 14-inch brass dial has a matted central section, a raised chapter ring displaying black Roman numerals, and Arabic five-minute markings with quarter-hour divisions. It features ornate pierced black steel hands and a crescent-shaped plaque signed 'L J Meyer (Bristol)', which is suggested to be a later retailer. The clock utilizes an 8-day fusee mechanism with an anchor escapement mounted between A-shaped brass plates. The rear of the case incorporates an integrated iron hanging loop and lateral stabilizers. The clock is accompanied by a door key and a winding key. The auction description reports the clock is in excellent condition, with a fully serviced movement and original mahogany case.
