Lot 126: An Early 20th Century Oak-Cased Striking Pendulum Wall Clock
A mechanical wall clock dating to the inter-war period, circa 1920-1940, housed in a dark-stained oak case. The case features a shaped pediment with a central pierced fretwork carving and a door with three vertical glazed panels to the lower section, revealing a circular brass-coloured pendulum bob. The square off-white dial is set with black Arabic numerals and a black minute track, featuring two winding holes indicating an eight-day striking mechanism. The hands are of black pierced metal in a traditional style. There are no visible maker marks to the dial or movement housing. The case bears two small adhesive labels with the numbers 4 and 126.
Condition report:
The clock case shows general surface wear, minor scuffs, and scratches consistent with age. The dial exhibits light foxing and minor discolouration. The mechanical movement is untested for timekeeping or striking functionality. Winding key is not present.
