Carlton Clocks

Description

A particularly small, slim and well proportioned strike fusee bracket clock, by Pike, Eltham, dated c.1810-1820

The classic mahogany lancet topped case has delicate geometric boxwood stringing. The case benefits from having all of its original brasswork. The 4-inch convex painted Roman dial is signed for PIKE, ELTHAM.

The dial has in the past been restored very well.

Steel Breguet-style hands.

The eight day movement has two fusee trains and strikes the hours on a bell.

Height 14 ¼ inches (36cms)
Width 7 ½ inches (19 cms)
Depth 4 ½ inches (11.5 cms)

Overhauled and guaranteed for 3 years.

James Pike is recorded in Baillie's as working 1805-8, but Loomes extends these dates to 1832. A John Pike is also listed at Eltham, for the dates 1820-42.
