STRIKING wall clock by Ansonia. London retailer.
Good value STRIKING dial antique clock made by Ansonia (USA) for the London retailer Saqui & Lawrence. Amazingly this one retains it's original paper faced dial - which is very rare.
I've ultrasonically cleaned and correctly oiled the movement, and it is running well and to time, for the intended duration of 8 days.
This one strikes on a coiled gong rods. It counts the hour on the hour and executes a single blow at 'half past'. The striking is controlled by a countwheel - which means that if you don't want the striking, just leave the left hand winder unwound.
These American antique clocks have slightly slower (restful) ticks than the European competitors.
The original paper faced dial has a couple of run marks as shown in the large photos, but is the best condition we've owned in 13 years of selling these.
Solid Beech case stained to a warm medium colour (a touch lighter / warmer than caught in the photos) has been gently restored. 12" dial. Original painted steel hands. Brass bezel gently polished but still retaining some patination.
The overall diameter is approx 43cm diameter, 15cm deep.
c1920's
The partnership of Saqui and Lawrence had a large shop in Piccadilly Circus in London. There is postcard showing the shop if you search (I can't upload anymore photos to this listing).
We love to meet customers when they come to collect, and we are able to walk through the clock's set-up and operation. We can ship and provide help over the 'phone and email (please enquire).
