Evocative c.1800 Painted Grandfather Clock Dial
The early well-worn round face with green grey ground having hand painted roman numerals and faded makers name ‘Mason, Chesterfield’.
Once having been the face of a long case clock, this dial is in as found condition and has not been cleaned or restored in any way, thus retaining its charms as a decorative piece of art. This particular dial is very well worn and thus has enormous appeal in decorative terms, with a very strong craquelure evenly spread over the face.
Timothy Mason of Chesterfield was known to be working from around 1795. There were several generations of Masons in Yorkshire Timothy, Gainsborough, 1695 then John, Doncaster with records of a long laquer case antique clock by him, about 1740 then John at Bawtry Thomas at Bawtry and Timothy at Chesterfield at 1795 then John apprenticed to Timothy at Chesterfield, began business at Rotherham in 1801.
The colour of this face is especially appealing, and if a clock dial could ever tell a story then this relic of time would surely tell the most beautiful tale ever told.
