17th Century Laburnum Marquetry Longcase Clock
A fine William & Mary late 17th century marquetry longcase clock. It has decorative laburnum veneers on oak, with fine line inlays and ebonised trim. Oyster veneers on the door form a background to panels of exquisite flower and bird marquetry, featuring a pair of loving birds.
The 11 inch brass dial, with silvered chapter ring, has a seconds dial, date aperture, and 4 winged cherub spandrels.
The 8 day London 5 pillar movement, original and in perfect working order, has been cleaned and overhauled. The movement is of superb quality, like the case, but there is no makers name on it.
Originally made with a rising hood, the hood has since been converted to frontal horizontal removal. Circa 1690
