Rare 10” English Fusee Drop Dial from 1850. Rare 10 Inch English Fusee Drop Dial Timepiece from 1850  by Felix Lecluse %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
We offer for consideration, this rare and appealing 10” fusee drop dial timepiece from the early-Victorian period, by distinguished watch and clockmaker Felix Lecluse of London.

• Lovely hand-crafted, two-wood cabinet work with light Walnut octogen-shaped head over a solid Mahogany drop box with a glazed central visible pendulum aperture.
• Case embellishment includes beautiful brass floral leaf intarsia, geometrically positioned around the head, whilst the box retains its original carved Acanthus styled side-ears.
• Hinged side inspection door.
• Original 10” convex metal dial, with black painted Roman numerals and Lecluse’s details.
• Original pair of blued Straight Breguet hands secured with a pinned collet.
• Convex glaze mounted in a solid brass bezel.
• Quality 8-day single fusee driven movement with rectangular plates and turned pillars.
• Comes with its original brass pendulum rod and bob and a brass winding key.

Born 1817 in France, Lecluse, having completed his horological apprentice, made his way to London in order to continue with his chosen profession. By 1842, he was working in the affluent area of Soho, from 40 Dean Street, London W1. However, by c1848, Lecluse had moved his operations to 7 Frith Street, Soho (from where this clock would have been made), before handing the business over to his son Felix Henri Leon Lecluse (born 1847), who focused solely on making pocket watches.

In his day, Lecluse was renowned for producing exquisite and prestige timepieces and as such, his high-quality precision craftsmanship always stimulates interest when seen on the market today. This superb drop dial clock of exquisite diminutive proportion, only serves to stimulate that interest.

The clock is in excellent condition and working order, having been professionally and sympathetically restored and overhauled to an exceptionally high order.
