Description

Late 18th century mahogany cased Scottish longcase clock by JOHN TULLOH of FORRES. Typical late 18th century Scottish slim case with long door. The case is Cuban mahogany with boxwood line stringing and reeded quarter columns. The hood with swan neck top with original brass patera and eagle and ball finial in the middle (not pictured, I forgot to put it back on). The clock has a later Victorian shaped plinth which doesn't look out of place at all.

The movement is 8 day striking on a bell at the hour and the date works. The simple early painted dial is beautifully done and very stylish. The clock has been fully serviced. Just a really nice elegant, slim Scottish longcase.

SIZE 18" wide by 8 1/2" deep y 86" high
