Mudge & Dutton longcase clock With Enamel Dials Mudge Dutton %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
This important clock is a superbly elegant longcase clock made by the eminent makers Thomas Mudge and William Dutton.

The beautiful Fleet Street mahogany case with choice veneers to the trunk door and base panel is made to stunning proportions. Understood to be made by The Rich family in Fleet Street it has lovely thin bolection mouldings around the doors, it is a case of pure quality. The movement is exactly what is expected from a Mudge & Dutton clock, good substantial plates and every detail finished to the highest quality. With vitreous enamel dials in perfect condition, these enamel dials were only ever used on the very best clocks. They were the most expensive dials to make due to the success rate being only one success in every dozen made, most failed because they tend to crack whilst cooling down. It was a very risky process and as such, today there are very few enamel dial clocks of this size around. The bigger the dial means the higher the risk there was of them cracking.

Previously this clock was part of the Tom Scott Collection, being number 62 in the inventory. The clock is accompanied with a leather bound book detailing the whole collection, in which this clock can be found. The book is also signed by all three authors and is also numbered.
