Whitehurst Derby - a George III oak long case clock, the 32cm circular brass dial with Roman and Arabic numerals, inscribed Whitehurst, Derby, eight-day movement striking on a bell, arched hood, shaped long rectangular door to waist flanked by quarter pilasters, 193cm high, c.1775 John Whitehurst FRS, of Derby (1713-1788) pioneered the round dial in from 1760, writing to his friend James Ferguson that he failed to see the point in a square dial when the action of the hands was rotative; to make the change would also save the expense of cast brass spandrels, separate chapter ring, pounced centres, etc., making his excellent quality clocks more affordable for ordinary people. The earliest dated examples are 1760 and 1761 and they set a distinctive east and north midlands trend. This example is in a shortish version of a typical Whitehurst standard case of which there were three types and would have been made, in all probability, in the 1770s.

G. & Craven, M., The Clockmakers and Watchmakers of Derbyshire (Mayfield, 1998) 241, figs. A3, A4 (for similar case-hood).
