Early Longcase Clock. Moon, Tides, Date, Month of Year. Placidus Penyston. Rare
Posted by admin On November 26, 2019
Moon, Tides, Date, Month of Year. A fascinating longcase clock with a very rare and unusual dial. The dial is marked for Placidus Penyston. The style of dial and movement have features which place them in the very early era of longcase clock making, possibly around 1700. The dial has particularly rare features, especially so considering its age. The subsidiary seconds and date are fairly standard for clocks of this type although the date inset is unusually placed. In addition, there is a penny moon cut-out with extra smaller windows for moon-phase and time of high water. Finally, and virtually never seen, is a rectangular inset revealing the current month of the year. The 8 day striking movement looks typical of those found around 1700. It is quite tall with five knopped and finned pillars. It has an inside countwheel, and the anchor location is lower than in later movements. The clock also comes with an ancient looking pair of brass-cased lead weights. I cant say for certain that these are original but certainly could be given the age of the clock. Overall condition is very good. The dial is clean and bright with good silvering to the rings. The movement is clean and runs well. All extra dial functions are connected and working apart from the year dial. I can see no sign that this was ever connected so probably for manual adjustment. The case is sound and solid with some age-related marks and movement. Dimensions are: height 74 inches, width 20 inches (top of hood), depth 11 inches (again top of hood). The dial is 11 inches square. The clock is complete with brass-cased lead weights, brass faced pendulum and winder. Viewing and collection welcome. The item “Early Longcase Clock. Moon, Tides, Date, Month of Year. Placidus Penyston. Rare” is in sale since Sunday, November 24, 2019. This item is in the category “Antiques\Antique Clocks\Longcase/Grandfather Clocks\Pre-1900″. The seller is “georgella123″ and is located in Yeovil. This item can be shipped to United Kingdom.
