Mid 20th Century, English, Passing Strike Skeleton clock in a scroll frame patterned after the famous Arabesque by Evans, considered the most beautiful skeleton clock model. This was made by a skilled English clockmaker. As with many skeleton clocks, he used an existing antique fusee movement as the heart of the clock and carefully fretted the brass frames and dial to give the impression of their 19th century counterparts. The front dial is nicely engraved: Wm. Cooper, St. John's Square, London This clock has a new oval dome and base. Height of clock 11.5", Height with dome 15 inches
