ROSEWOOD WALL CLOCK
An imposing Regency rosewood wallclock in an octagonal case with fretted brass inlays on front panels and moulded edging.  There are looking side and trap doors.  11" painted iron dial with Roman numerals and blue steel moon hands of unusual design with the hour moon smaller than the minute.  The 8 day Fusee movement has circular plates.  There is a normal anchor escapement but a very rare feature is the separate friction drive for the hour and minute hand allowing them to be set separately.  The back of the dial is designated J Jones.  There are numerous Jones listed but if a London clock the likely maker is James Jones of Banner Street (1815).

Stock No:  CA245   Price: £1050
