Sienna marble clocks are extremely rare and the last one we had around 15 years ago sold very quickly. This clock most likely dates to around 1870 and has a slim profile which makes it an ideal size for most Mantel's. The white vitreous enamel dial is near perfect and the 'moon' hands are original too. The Malachite inlaid Urn to the front panel is bordered with a dark grey Marble and the Red sections are Griotte Marble - getting it's name from the Morello (Griotte) Cherry. A stunning piece.  8 day duration and fully serviced and sold with a 24month guarantee.

Bryson & Son were in business in Edinburgh from 1844 to 1900 after which Hamilton & Inches took over and are still trading there to this day on Princes Street. Robert Bryson, both junior and senior were highly respected clockmakers with Robert Senior being the clock and watchmaker to Queen Victoria. This fine clock was made in the workshops of Drocourt, Paris and bears the Drocourt stamp. Most large clockmakers of the late 1900's had a contract with one of the large, high quality Carriage clock makers in France and could then sign their clocks, like this one, Bryson & Son, Paris. This fine clock has now been fully restored and is best viewed in our shop to appreciate the proportions and quality. The movement has repeat function so you can hear the last hour in the dark, activated through the button to the top and has an alarm function. We would imagine this clock being a 'special order' for a large room or even the window display of Bryson's Shop window on Princes Street as the size would make rather impractical as a travel clock! Sold with a two year guarantee and can be delivered almost anywhere in the world.
