Charles Bayles of Hampstead, a George III ebonised eight day repeating bracket clock, the arched silvered dial with strike silent and date aperture, twin fusee movement with anchor escapement and engraved backplate, 32cm wide, 20cm deep, 43cm high
£600-900

Condition:
Looks to have been restored many years ago but now a little neglected, case rubbed and scuffed particularly across the top of the arch, one small piece of veneer missing from the top of the front door, oxidisation to the dial, and equally to the other brass work, movement looks complete but not tested for timekeeping, comes with probably original engraved brass pendulum, winding key and loose section of veneer from the top of the back door, apparently no case key for front or back doors, both of which have original locks and are not locked shut.
