AN UNUSUAL EARLY VICTORIAN MAHOGANY REGULATOR WITH 24-HOUR DIALBy Barraud, LondonThe case with a shallow arch, circular glazed dial opening, above rectangular glazed panel door, on plinth base, the 11in. circular silvered dial, signed [perhaps a replacement?] with sweep minutes, and subsidiaries for seconds and twenty-four hours, the substantial plates with angled shoulders, six large turned pillars, six crossings to the wheels with deadbeat escapement and maintaining power, the glazed mercurial pendulum suspended from a substantial ‘A’-frame mounted on the seatboard, 201cm highCondition reportThe Mercury is temporarily stored separately. One brass cased weight. One weight pulley and key. Case: We’ll figured veneers to the front, especially to the hood and base. Please see additional images on our web for filled former fixings holes in sides. Perhaps these were for some solid fixing?Holes filled on backboard behind movement with a relatively modern wood filler. Would be better removed?Two pairs of additional fixing holes for the pendulum A frame on movement seat board. Two L shaped fixings on backboard to firm up the A frame, once in place. Currently the rear seat board screw holes are covered by forward position of the A frame. Screw hole ties in with risers beneath. Three small vacant holes and two filled holes in seatboard between lower pillars. Beat adjustment bridge has a spare screw hole and two locators which might have been for a cock which held in place the pendulum suspension block. The current suspension block is clearly a replacement.The substantial movement has been well cared for over the years but is now dusty and will require a full service before running.Unusually for Barraud the movement and dial is unnumbered. It may be that it is a replacement, possibly once enamel? The style of the turning to the foot of the dial feet does not match the foot turning of the pillars. The five minute markers and seconds numerals are heavy block. Substantial plates, canted on the upper corners. Wheel work of six crossings.
