English Oak Tall Case Clock

England. Circa 1860.

Fancy for a country clock, this particular tall case clock has an impressive dial and mahogany cross banding and inlay that dress it up in formal wear suitable for a country estate.

Morbier Clock

France. Circa 1860.

Brass Lantern Clock

England. Circa 1890.

Painted French Morbier Clock

France. Circa 1820.

Faux-painted, French Morbier tall case clock with brass & enamel face, hammered brass pendulum. Posies, lily-of-the-valley and strawberry blossoms decorate the base and case door, while the bucolic nature of the theme is sealed by the inclusion of wheat ears on the base and bonnet. The pair of doves above the face indicate that this clock was most likely a wedding gift.

Scottish Oak Tall Case Clock

Scotland. Circa 1830.

The dial is signed, "J. E. Jones, Tregaron." Tregaron is a bucolic village located about 25 miles north east of Edinburgh.
