Original Listing Description

London Georgian brass dial grandfather clock movement only @ 1780. This rare original signed movement came together with the London inlaid mahogany Georgian case, set of 3 brass finials, brass clad weights, weight pulleys, and pendulum that I also have for sale this week. Please see my other listings for other Georgian period longcase grandfather clock items. This an excellent quality signed London brass dial movement in very good original as found condition with unbelievably good ancient original patina. The 12" wide x 16 3/8" tall brass dial is in excellent original condition with no damage, and retains it's great original finish - the spandrels retain their original fire gilding, and the silvered surfaces are original and quite good. Movement is original to the dial with no extra holes anywhere. Great original hands! The 5 pillar London movement is complete and intact including all of the calendar and strike/silent work. It ticks and strikes with gentle finger pressure on each gear train, and the movement should go with oiling and adjusting, but has not been serviced in decades, and should be serviced to be a reliable running movement. No rust to the steel parts at all. The original seatboard measures 14 1/8" wide x 5" deep x 9/16" thick. It has a crack running through it, but has been repaired a long time ago with two batons on the underside, and feels very stable. Retains it's two original seatboard bolts. Great original bell. Cable is old, but good. Please see the photos attached for the complete description, and ask any questions you may have. No reserve. I can combine multiple items to save on shipping cost. UPS ground shipping in the continental USA will be $50.00 (Condition: Pre-Owned)
