George II Eight Bell Bracket Clock %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
An imposing Mid 18th Century bracket antique clock dating to around 1740. It has an ebony veneered case, with a traditional inverted caddy top with a substantial brass carrying handle and four brass corner finials. The arch brass dial has an engraved silvered chapter ring, subsidiary strike silent and rise and fall dials and above the makers signature, John Berry London. The triple fusee movement sounds the 1/4's on 8 bells and additionally the hours on a single bell. The back plate is engraved and signed.
John Berry is listed as a clock maker working 1728-54.
This antique clock, as with many, was converted in the 19th Century from a verge escapement to an anchor escapement to provide more reliable timekeeping. The pull repeat was also changed to chime the 1/4's by adding a third fusee which is chain driven.
Height 50 cm (19 3/4") Width 26 cm (10 1/4") Depth 17.5 cm (6 1/1")
