This is one of a number of 18-19th Century long case clock dials and movements which are from the extensive collection that belonged to the late Eric Morton 1945 - 2019. I know very little about clocks and know little jargon relating to them. Any questions please ask and I will answer them as best I can.
All items are for spares - repair only and may have bits missing but I know that some NON clock collectors only want a dial to hang on a wall as a furnishing with their surname or a local place name etc. all are A/F = as found.
This is an enamel dial ONLY which is named M. Roper, Penrith.
It has been hand painted with nice floral sprays in the corners and a little Church building in the centre.
Unfortunately, its original hands are missing. There is a nice date dial under the centre point.
The 3 movement struts are in situ on the back.
The metal ware is rusted and tarnished which has effected the enamelling on the front, mostly on the edges and corners where the enamelling has chipped. The paintwork on the maker's name and numbers is faded.
The enamelling is cracked in places and looks to be discoloured from age. The enamel is FLAKING off in places.
There are some surface scuffs and minor impact marks etc.
It needs a bit of a clean.
Please see pictures provided for more details and visual confirmation of condition.
It measures approx. 12 inches x 12 inches. It weighs approx. 1 kilos.
These dials are very heavy and the shipping price reflects this so please take this into consideration when buying.
My stock ref : Unit 9 - #T409-060123.
