Description
A superb rare clock of 8 day duration with fusee movement and anchor recoil escapement. The fine quality movement with stop-work.
Cabinet with superb mahogany case. Tiny drop to the case and bottom and side doors to case.
The dial signed Wood, Golden Sq LONDON. Golden Square was an area of Soho – a centre for luxury items and the finest clocks. The dial just signed Wood probably means it is a family workshop probably starting from Robert in a seperate area of London and John in Golden Square.
The family Wood were highly respected horologists who produced a wide variety of different clock styles.
Stunning cabinet of lovely colour and patination. Cast brass bezel to the dial.
