Item Details
Description
Fine Richard Ellis, Westminster, Chinoiserie Tall Case Clock, ca. 1800, the front of the case decorated with Chinese village scenes, the sides with foliate and bird decoration, with a time and strike movement, second hand dial and numerical calendar dial, h. 97", w. 20", d. 10".
Condition
The surface exhibits indications of later over-painting and touch-up, scattered inpainting and evidence of past paint loss. There are missing corner blocks on the bonnet, just beneath the shaped top. The top board is a later replacement. There is a loss to the carved fretwork frieze above the door, about 3/4" in diameter. A return molding on the base of the bonnet is detached but present. There is a straight horizontal shrinkage crack at a lamination on the lower section of the base. The works appear to be associated with the case. Polychromed pendulum, period weights and key are present.
