The clock comes with weights, pendulum, case key and winder IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING THE CATALOGUING OF CLOCKS Movements, dials and cases Movements and dials are described as relating to the cases in which they are housed in one of the following three ways: the case... we are of the opinion that the movement and dial started life in the current case. in a case... we are of the opinion that the movement and dial are in a case of correct period and type (and may well be original to the movement and dial), however there is evidence to suggest that they may not have started out life together. now in a case... we are of the opinion that the movement and dial are no longer in the original case or one of correct period and/or type. Pendulums, weights, winding and case keys Unless specifically indicated otherwise in the catalogue description it can be assumed that all clocks are sold with the requisite pendulum and correct number of weights (where appropriate), however we cannot guarantee that they are original to the clock. We do not indicate in the catalogue description whether winding or case keys are present with any specific clock. As many are consigned without keys please check with the department to establish whether they are present or not prior to bidding. Condition Due to the mechanical nature of clocks and the fact that most are of great age we cannot offer any guarantee as to whether they are in working order or free from major faults or restoration. Although we endeavour to catalogue items in a fair and informed manner, omission of any comments or observations regarding the condition or originality of a clock in the description does not necessarily indicate that it is free from significant faults, restoration or is in working condition. We would strongly advise any prospective purchaser to view the item in person or request a condition report and/or further images prior to bidding. Measurements Dial measurements are given in inches, other dimensions such as height are given in centimeters (and inches for English clocks).

Provenance: The property of Viscount Portman, Spencer House thence by descent to The Late Henry Clive and Mrs. Clive, formerly of Perrystone Court, Herefordshire. condition report:** Movement appears to be complete and original, it will run and strike but is due for a clean and overhaul. The pendulum is fairly long which has necessitatied a hole to be cut in the bottom of the case and a box applied to the underside to enclose where the bottom of the pendulum bob passes through. This detail appears to have been done a long time ago possibly at the time of manufacture. The movemernt securing brackets are original and there are no signs of this case ever containing a different movement and dial. The convex section of the dial is backed onto a flat circular brass plate which appears to be a piece of salvaged brass as it has a couple of old sporious filled holes and other surface blemishes, the dial itself is discoloured/tarnished but undamaged. There is a possibility that at some point early in the clocks life that the dial was changed from a white painted version to the current engraved silvered brass arrangement (hence the salvaged brass plate). The case is generally in presentable condition, the only noteworthy faults being a fairly crude repair to the strip of veneer lining the top flat section along the back of the case, this could very easily be improved by a good case restorer. as well as some light scuffing next to the bezel where attempts have been made to open the front . Otherwise damage limited to minor bumps scuffs, scatches cracks and small veneer chips commenserate with age and use. Brass fittings appear original and retain original lacquered finish albeit discoloured in places (particularily the feet). Clock comes with case lock key but no winder.
