Fine 18th Century Queen Anne Burr Walnut Eight-Day Longcase Clock
Early 18th-Century Burr Walnut Longcase Clock, Circa 1705-1710. England
This magnificent early 18th-century English longcase clock exemplifies exceptional craftsmanship and timeless elegance. Dating to circa 1705-1710, it showcases the finest qualities of Georgian-era clockmaking and is a remarkable addition to any distinguished collection.
The clock features a stunning burr walnut-veneered oak case of the highest quality.
The square hood is adorned with fine sound frets and flanked by walnut columns with wooden capitals and bases.
The trunk door is framed with elegant walnut D-mouldings and features a gilt wooden lenticle, revealing the pendulum’s movement.
The hood includes viewing windows on the sides, adding both function and decorative appeal.
The base, harmonizing perfectly with the hood, boasts shallow stepped mouldings and a plinth typical of the early 18th century.
The beautifully executed 12-inch brass dial features a silvered chapter ring with Roman numerals, half-hour markers, and Arabic five-minute divisions.
A subsidiary seconds ring is located below the XII, while a finely engraved date aperture rests above the VI.
The matted center includes delicate engraved detailing, with corners embellished by superb putti-and-crown spandrels.
The time is indicated by an exquisite pair of period blued-steel hands, with the hour hand richly pierced.
The eight-day weight-driven movement retains its remarkable originality.
The going train operates with an anchor escapement and a seconds pendulum.
The striking train is regulated by an outside count wheel and features the rare addition of striking in passing on the half-hour.
This clock has been fully restored and is in excellent working condition, preserving its original charm and historical significance. A superb example of early Georgian craftsmanship, this burr walnut longcase clock is a true statement piece that combines functionality with unparalleled artistry. Perfect for collectors or as a centerpiece in a refined interior.
