Impressive oak longcase clock by W & C Nicholas of Birmingham
NEW ARRIVAL
A very impressive and large oak longcase clock by these well known Birmingham Clockmakers.
Featuring an 8 day duration movement, moonphase, seconds and date. The late 18th century painted dial is in excellent condition. The moonphase disc depicts two friendly looking moons, a country house and a galleon.
The majestic solid oak case is also veneered with mahogany in areas such as the hood door and crossbanding to the trunk door and base. The swan neck top has intricate fretwork, brass paterea and three brass finials. The trunk features a shaped trunk door, reeded quarter columns and brass capitals. The base is finished with ogee feet and a raised panel.
Note: This clock has only recently arrived at our showrooms. Both the dial and case are presented in a restored condition. The movement will require a full overhaul and service before delivery.
