Strut clocks were first designed and popularised by the great Victorian carriage clockmaker Thomas Cole (1800-1864) and derive their name from their rear pivoted strut support. Cole first conceived the idea in the mid 19th century and these clocks were the mainstay of his business until his death in 1864. They gained their popularity from their flatness, or thinness, as they were more portable than the square bulk of traditional carriage clocks. Although with slight variations a very similar clock was sold at Christies on 20th November 2009 lot 6. Another was sold again at Christies, 14 June 2000, lot 4.
