Clock · Dial clock

This wall clock is attributed to the makers J. & B. Levi of Dover, England, and is dated to approximately 1795. The clock features a characteristic salt-box form case constructed from mahogany. Its 12-inch diameter dial is silvered metal, displaying hours with engraved Roman numerals. Pierced blued iron hands indicate the time, protected by a glass cover held within a hinged cast brass bezel. Internally, the timepiece operates via a single fusee spring-driven movement, which transmits force through the gear train. A notable technical feature is the inclusion of a crown wheel verge escapement, a mechanism that was frequently replaced by anchor escapements in later models. The clock is documented as having an original mahogany case with decorative lower curvatures. , though its functional state and the recent service history remain unverified in the provided documentation.
