Further Information & Condition Report

Discover a stunning late 18th-century eight-day longcase clock by Joseph Wood of Scarborough, featuring a beautifully carved mahogany case. This exquisite timepiece boasts a pagoda pediment adorned with three ball and spire finials, a break arch hood door, and a long trunk with an arched trunk door. Resting on a rectangular plinth raised on bracket feet, this clock showcases a brass dial with intricate details such as a moon disc, cast scroll spandrels, and a matted dial center.

The dial includes a seconds dial, date aperture, and steel hands, complemented by a silvered chapter displaying Roman numerals, five-minute Arabics, and a minute track. The clock mechanism is supported by a four-pillar rack striking movement, which chimes the hours on a bell. This exceptional timepiece comes complete with its original weights and pendulum.

Joseph Wood, a renowned clockmaker, is believed to have started his career in Whitby before relocating to Scarborough around 1760. Operating there until 1790, Wood's craftsmanship is exemplified in this longcase clock. Notably, this clock features a later carved mahogany case, a departure from the typical oak construction found in later carved cases. Don't miss the opportunity to own this unique piece of horological history at the upcoming auction by Duggleby Auctioneers.
