This is not a fusee clock, rather a British version of an American open spring movement (unique plates and cut outs). The movement is mounted up on wooden blocks as is so often the case in English cases that use American style hardware. The 12" dial pan was originally painted, but now with a printed paper dial glued on (shadow on rear of pan attests to its originality). The movement is complete & ticking OK; could stand oiling. The outer bezel of the clock is mahogany, and with a spun brass bezel that was replaced maybe 30 years ago. Diameter 17 inches
