Lot 1970
A Georgian walnut longcase clock by Godfrie Poy of London, with two-train striking movement and silvered brass arched dial, the case with caddy top, with long trunk door and stepped base. Height 270 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The case hood is in generally reasonably good condition. There are some minor nibbles to the veneers and stress fractures to the caddy top. The top cornice has a small loss to the front left hand corner. The door is not warped. The glazed side panels are in good condition. The beaded moulding beneath the brass capitals has a significant loss to the left hand return and a smaller loss to the right. The sides of the trunk are in good condition. The door has a very slight warp around the top left hand corner but in our opinion this is not particularly problematic. The base is in generally good condition with only minor nibbles to the veneers, old stress fractures and small losses. There are the usual scuffs to the base moulding. Whilst the mask around the dial fits reasonably, in our opinion the case and movement are likely to be a marriage. There is packing to either side of the seatboard. We do not have a pendulum with this clock and have not had the movement running. When weight is applied to the going train the movement appears to operate it is should however it is extremely dirty. The strike mechanism runs when the movement is advanced however it is not striking correctly and requires some attention.The case hood is in generally reasonably good condition.
