The case is made of Walnut with a highly figured front panel. The clock has the usual lower convex door held with a lock and key and side door held with a latch, but what's interesting is the fact that this clock was in the offices of De La Rue, a company which is still going strong today and who printed our British bank notes. The label shows it was taken from the Transfer dept for servicing by Thwaites & Reed of Bowling Green lane, EC1. The offices of De La Rue were in Bunhill Row, London. The clock features a fully overhauled single 'fusee' movement with long brass rod pendulum and Bob. Overall the clock has a pleasant warm colour and is ready to grace any interior, classic or contemporary. Sold with a full 24 month guarantee.
