A Fine Wooded Dial, English Dial Clock by Perigal
A beautiful example of an early English fusee dial clock by this eminent maker.
The 8 day duration, gut fusee movement with Anchor Recoil escapement. Having 4 knopped pillars, tapered plates with the backplate being signed in this maker's usual way "FRA (NCI) s. PERIGAL, ROYAL EXCHANGE, LONDON" between the barrel and fusee bearings. The movement is fixed to the back of the one-piece wooden dial by way of a falseplate.
The pegged, single piece mahogany front incorporates the 14" diameter dial, bezel seating and narrow, French polished and well-moulded bezel surround. The dial retains its original cream background and has an outer divided minute track with hour diamonds, Roman hour numerals and the maker's signature "Perigal, Royal Exchange" above the centre and "LONDON" below centre. The fine blued steel hands are of 'spade' style.
The substantial, cast brass Sheraton style bezel with flat glass has a substantial hinge and a fixed lock with front keyhole.
The polished mahogany back box has a long access door to the right and the rounded bottom has a curved and locking door.
Francis Perigal (III) was the son of Francis Perigal (II) and followed in the family firm, working as a high-class clockmaker in Royal Exchange from circa 1786. He died in 1843. He was an eminent Clockmaker of the day and all of his clocks were high quality and never fancy. This is a prime example of his work and I am extremely pleased to have obtained it. This clock is EXACTLY as it should be, the neglection is wonderful and fortunately, it has never been 'botched'! It is just about post 'salt box' and prior to smaller side door and cockbeaded lower door.

Date 1800
19th Century Antiques Material Mahogany
Origin English
Condition The dial, considering its age and being constructed from mahogany is exceptionally good with signs of age showing such as paint shrinkage. The bezel is very good with its original working lock. The case is excellent and of good colour and patina - it is all original including the lower door lock and side door brass closing tab. There are no major splits or cracks. I have taken various photos (which can be viewed on request) of the movement in its present condition which is very neglected but good and unmolested by poor repairers. People often ask me if I have photos of movements before I restore them and that is why I have taken these. It will however, appear completely different once restored to a high standard.
