Welsh Longcase Clock by Watkin Owen of Llanrwst.
Fine late 18th.c. brass faced 8 day longcase clock c.1780 by Watkin Owen of Llanrwst, Wales’ most celebrated antique clock maker. Excellent Conwy valley oak case with a well proportioned hood complete with broken pediment and original brass finials, over shaped door and base panel. Eight day works featuring Owen’s trademark fifth pillar. Brass face engraved ‘Watkin Owen Llanrwst’ together with well realized urns typical of ‘the good engraver’. The face also carries a second name ‘David Moses’ on the bottom edge. This is believed to have been the original owner of the clock and is an unusual feature. Even more unusual is the fact that the clock features no numerals for 7 o’clock, instead the numerals for 8 appear twice!
In excellent condition (barring minor damage to the face where a rivet has pulled through in the top left corner). The works have been cleaned, repaired and overhauled and are sold with a 12 month guarentee. The case has been cleaned and polished. Winder and key supplied.
Dimensions height 90″, width 21″, depth 10″.
The Owen family of Llanrwst, a small market town in the Conwy valley, are probably the most prolific and best known family of 18th century clockmakers in Wales. Watkin Owen (1755-1809) was aged just 21 when his father, the respected clockmaker John Owen,died. After establishing himself as head of the business, he improved and refined his father’s works, adding a fifth pillar to the movement and producing a remarkable number of antique clocks of consistantly high quality and reliability housed in excellent regional cases. For more information about Watkin Owen you can’t beat the remarkable study of his output which makes up the bulk of Colin and Mary Brown’s book The Clockmakers of Llanrwst.
