Early, Wooden Dial Wall Clock in a Mahogany Case
This attractive clock can only be described as "sleepy and untouched".
The 8 day duration, gut fusee movement with tapered plates, knopped pillars and Anchor Recoil escapement. Also having a substantial pendulum and unusually, a transit locking bracket.
Behind a 12" diameter flat wooden dial with its original paint. The cream coloured background has an inked outer minute track and short Roman hour numerals. Above the centre is the maker's name of "SLY" and below is the place "WEYMOUTH". The open moon hands are matching and the dial is behind a locking, cast brass 'Sheraton' style concave bezel with flat glass.
The case has a narrow moulded edge surround that is part of the one-piece dial. The back box has the usual access door to the right hand side and the curved bottom has a cockbeaded door.
Sly is listed as working in Weymouth circa about 1800 and is known to have made many good clocks.

Origin English
Condition Completely untouched for most of it's life, this clock is totally original including working bezel lock and the dial paint. The movement is fully working and keeping time however, has been neglected for a considerable time and would benefit from a complete overhaul and new gut line.
The dial has now benefitted from a light clean and sympathetic re-inking of the numerals and the name (compare pirctures).
The cuved case bottom has small pieces of missing veneer but otherwise is sound and of fantastic colour and patination.
A price and timescale for any work required by the purchaser can be advised upon request.
